My new toy

Not content with my head being well and truely screwed up by my Dreambox 7020 i've got another Linux receiver which i'm determined to get running aswell as the Dreambox 

Yes its the Dreamboxes poorer brother the Technomate TM9100

How are you getting on with it? Is it the 'Super'?

My mate's just bought one. Paid for the basic one but they sent him the Super for the same price!

He's gone very quiet, so I don't know if it's because it's not playing ball. I'm scared to ask!

I've not touched it other than making sure it works and installing the HDD into it, i've just been too busy with work    I thought it was the super but it turns out to be just the 9100

Hopefully at the weekend i can install the network points and get it all setup.  You can apparently install images on an SD card using Iboot in much the same way as you can on a USB pen drive on the dreambox

The images look a bit flaky for the TM9100 atm but hpefully they will get beter

So far I've bricked it, brought it back from the dead, Installed DS Team v3.4 which didn't work very well at all, with loads of rebooting needed as it kept falling over itself.  None of my emus worked properly either.  It was an absolutely hideous image to work with which surprised me after how good i though the DS Dreambox image was 

Its now running Underground Resistance 11 which is absolutely fantastic.  I've only had to reboot it once since it was installed.  Its been working nearly aswell as my Dreambox which has been really reliable as of late 

The only downer is that i can't currently get it to read my Sky card, although i am working on it.  Its not the reader as it reads and decodes my Digitalb card and reads my Telewest Nagra card and expired Viaccess Art card.  Its well strange as i'm using exactly the same emu on my Dreambox which reads all my cards with no problems at all 

Gave up on Iboot aswell and just installed the one image in the Flash

Is iboot the only multiboot tool for the 9100?

I thought there was something else?

No idea Stick, i haven't really looked into it    I'm just happy to keep the UR-11 image running in the flash memory 

The one thing that i have found with it is that it works a lot better if you keep everything to a bare minimum.  It only has gBlox and CCcam emus installed no new Screen Skins and everything that i don't use has been removed.  Its running on the bare minimum and everything seems to be working fine 

Its still not as reliable as my Dreambox though
