The combo is not working. I'm using OpenPli 6.1 at the moment without any problems. Yesterday I made a backup of my 6.1 installation, and after this tried to install 6.2. The installation went well, but I immedeately noticed that the only softcam installed was Mgcamd. I tried then to install CCCam 230. I got a lot of errors, and basically, the installation didn't work.

I tried installing 232 after this. The same problems.

 

I had to move back to OpenPli 6.1.

 

Anyone had the same problems? How do I fix this?

 

I have a VU+ Duo.

 

Best regards

The problem is that quite a few of the oldest boxes we support (ET 4000/5000/9000, VU+ Uno/Solo/Duo, XP1000, etc) only have 128MB flash memory.

 

This is slowly becoming quite tight. I just flashed an XP1000 with 6.1-release (it is the only box with 128MB that I have), and after a flash, configuration and a scan, but before installing anything, I only have 33MB free anymore. Which means that you need to be very careful what you choose to install. This is also the reason an upgrade from 6.1-release to 6.2-release (which updates hunderds of packages) will fail.

 

We're looking into how we can reduce the size, but don't expect any miracles.

Thanks for your reply. When I read your reply i remembered seeing some note about "Not enough space" on the screen.. Is there a easy way to clean up the installation? Besides going in to the menus and removing skins, plugins aso?
Otherwise 6.1 seems to be "end of the road" for my old VU+ Duo.. Sad, but inevitable i guess..

 

Does newer versions of VU+ Duo have more internal memory?

We're looking into it at the moment, so don't throw it away just yet...

Any news on this?

There isn't much you can do about it.

 

Flash a new version, and try to limit upgrades. The only thing that takes up a bit of space and can be removed is Samba, but you'll lose CIFS access to local storage. OpenPLi in general doesn't preinstall anything that isn't really needed, so there isn't much else you can remove. There are no skins other than the default, or drivers other than the kernel ones. By default only a few plugins are installed, but you can't do without them, and they hardly take up any space.

 

With some hacking you could start from NFS, and there is also something called flash extended which uses some local storage device to extend the space in flash, but not sure that works on all boxes...
