Ive just put up a post with the same problem, I think i need to reimage with the serial port, it boots up for about 30 seconds, (to the point where the pacino image pic of the dogs apeared) but goes green then switches off, and now I cant flash via FTP

maybe the same problem.....

Yes this is exactly what is happening to me aswell my friend.... I have no chance to setup a FTP connection and I have no idea as to how I would flash without doing it this way...

Do you know at all??

FLASH WITH IFA

you dont need the dbox to boot at all as the software takes over when it sees a dbox start up.

using ftp is not always the best method when you have a dbox with start up problems.
