now it's time for our last service pack for the image LT The fifth Campaign.
General note:
Barry Allen is a great tool for the experienced Dreambox user but it is also the source of much problem for the inexperienced Dreambox user.
LT Team has only tested the image in flash and if you are using Barry Allen and have some problems then install the image in flash. If the
error is still exist after installing the image in flash then send us the crashlog which is created on harddisc.
No error reports will be read if image is used with Barry Allen!
Barry Allen & LT:
This usual problem with using BA is that the drivers & kernel are usually loaded from the image in flash. This means that if you do not have the same drivers in a flash image as the one you are booting using BA you will end up in a non-tested (and non-supported) configuration.
Also, the LT image has tweaked the early boot process and this might be effected by using a tool such as BA.
However, the Barry Allen is a great tool and if it works for you we are very happy!

The image is now pushing the hardware to the limits (and little beyond) so to make all functions to work as intended you have to install
a Compact Flash so you can create a swapfile on it. We have notice several issues which a swapfile will solve.
Also before installing the image if you are upgrading please remove the epg_external.dat if you are using LTEPG and activate swap as first
thin you do after installing the image.
We also recommend that you on dm800/8000 insert a USB Stick in lower slot and creates a swapfile for the Dreambox.
If you follow the notes above you will be just as us, a happy Dreambox owner.
