i tested all last 3 uploaded files but the vuduo2 box didnot restart
so i rflashed the box again
Please install image openATV and use original OpenMultiBoot to feed.
It will be interesting to know the results of the test.

yes . i did
openatv 5.0 on flash with original OpenMultiBoot
openatv5.0-openatv4.2-vti image 8.2.1 on usb .... perfect - every thing is ok with these images
but pli image and blackhole ... they donot work with OpenMultiBoot , the box hangs after installed these images
the other issue ... this plugin didnot show the bootmenu , to change image you have to go into openmultiboot plugin to select the image you want
iam ready to do any test you ask
thanks alot

If you have openatv in flash try this with pli than it works.
You need to apply a fix on OpenPLi images in order to boot (this patch is not accepted by OpenPLi yet)....
Go to the location where OpenPLi is store (lets assume /media/usb) and find the following file: /media/usb/open-multiboot/openpli/etc/init.d/volatile-media.sh
And change the following line:
From:
To:
Or simply copy the file from /etc/init.d/volatile-media.sh into /media/usb/open-multiboot/openpli/etc/init.d/volatile-media.sh
And try to boot OpenPLi.

cobus .. thank you
it doesnot work here ,
ok for the first time when you instal openpli on usb multiboot and restart the box .. it works alwyas normal , but when you restart the box again it hangs on pli bootlogo
i donnot know but maybe something there is a difference between xtrend and vuduo2 drivers

Ok until we will not have something goos working i will adapt a version of meoboot for OBH and pli
that will be perfect
but please .. i wish if we could use difference kernels
i know that we can use telnet for backup-restore multiboot images but i hope if you could add backup-restore multiboot images option

Sorry you are asking too much to meoboot.
Meoboot always load kernel from flash.
Currently i have adapted it for OpenBlackHole and it seems to work with OpenBlackHole in flash and Pli and other derivates in multiboot.
But it seems not possible the contrary. If you install Meoboot on Pli in flash you cannot boot OBH and other images that have Opengles and Xbmc because of different drivers managment.
So it seems better that you go with OpenMultiBoot.
About it @Dimitrij:
Maybe your patch is not wrong. Have you added to your ipk the dependencies for mtd-utils mtd-utils-ubifs ?

Dimitrij.
I had the same problem in meoboot develop these days testing on Pli.
I had an empty file in image extraction.
I discovered that this is because Pli doesn't include in the image packages mtd-utils mtd-utils-ubifs
so the executable to extract the image are not available.
Someone have them only because have installed other ipk like backup-suite that have those dependencies and installed before but there are not in the standard image and if you don't include dependencies OpenMultiBoot cannot work i think.

Ok the first alpha of meoboot for OpenBlackHole.
If someone want to try in the meanwhile you wait for a better solution for Pli....
It can boot in multiboot
...... other images not yet tested.
WARNING THIS IS AN ALPHA VERSION. USE AT YOUR RISK ONLY FOR PERSONAL TESTS WITH OpenBlackHole in flash.
Instructions:
upload the 2 ipk in /tmp
click on green -> yellow -> manual install ipk packages
Warning:
1) frist install meoboot
2) second install meoboot-init
P.s. Because of all these images have implemented vu+ proxy drivers and kernel support meoboot cannot work with Pli in flash to boot those images for Solo2, SoloSE, and duo2-
But it should work with images for the box that does'nt have gles support like solo duo uno, ultimo and zero.
So i suppose you can try this version of meoboot with Pli in flash but only for Solo, duo, uno, ultimo, zero.
Remeber only that if you install meoboot with Pli in flash you need to install first nandsim module.

At my request, OMB checked for solo2.
Packages mtd-utils/mtd-utils-ubifs/solo2 nandsim module + solo2 boxbranding.so were installed.
The result is an empty folder...

Yes you are right. I have logged and there is something wrong.
I hope to find time to take a glance to this but i'm very busy

OK i found a little time to look.
The first error in your patch that i found is that for vu+ boxes the BOX_NAME fails to match the condition values. So the wrong values are assigned.
This because of the routine you used to extract box name.
elif fileExists("/proc/stb/info/vumodel"): try: l = open("/proc/stb/info/vumodel") model = l.read() l.close() BOX_NAME = str(model.lower()) l.close() BOX_MODEL = "vuplus"
A strip of tthe string is needed
elif fileExists("/proc/stb/info/vumodel"): try: l = open("/proc/stb/info/vumodel") model = l.read() l.close() BOX_NAME = str(model.lower().strip()) l.close() BOX_MODEL = "vuplus"
With this fix the box name will match the correct values.
But there are oter issues in patch of the extract image.
Posted 4 June 2015 - 16:11
Ok i have found and fixed all.
The second issue was about image path.
The variable OMB_GETIMAGEFOLDER = str(box) in this value is not correct for vu+ boxes.
So you have to find line:
if BOX_MODEL == "vuplus":
and add after
OMB_GETIMAGEFOLDER = "vuplus/" + BOX_NAME
After this fix all will work. The images will be extracted and booted.
Thanks Dimitrij for the patched version, you made a great work !!
