I browsed though this E2 section in the forum but cant find any thread about installing the enigma2 on usb stick. I dont think its mentioned in the sticky tutorial either.
I found a post about it at the satpimps forum, but that was very old and involved using jazup

I do suspect that this also can be done using azup or the MAT tool.

It would be nice to be able to use usb, so that one can test images without viping your working flash image every time.

If anyone here have done this, it would be nice if they could bother anwering a few questions about this.

Is it as simple as running azup and select USB instead of DOM and flash the image?

Does it work with any USB port, or do you need to use a specific one?

Will it then work like this: If usb stick inserted it boots automaticly from usb. And with usb stick removed it boots like normal from flash?

I've noticed a comment on satpimp that the image in flash needs to be the same kernel as in usb. I guess most of the recent images have the newest kernel - or could this be a problem?

Thanks for your reply, but I'm afraid those links are not so relevant to what I'm asking.
I have googled it before, I only found some information on how to do this using jazup. But jazup is old and does not support images with newer kernel.
I'm almost certain that it can be done with azup or MAT tools. I just wanted to ask here if anyone have done this with recent images before I try it on my own.

Yes,it is possible to run a diferent E2 image on USB, I used to do that and worked fine on my Azbox Elite HD. One condition: you must have the same kernel,both images (on DOM and USB) with the same kernel,otherweise it did not work. In Azup you need to check USB in "device" and uncheck "copy kernel"in "Advanced Options", because the kernel can be install only on DOM, not on USB. If the USB is connected on Azbox after restart, booting priority is USB, if you want a image from DOM then you can switch power off and remove USB,then power on Azbox with image on DOM.

Thank you, I will give it a go at my Premium
