Hello all,

after 1. great experiences with my now I'm stuck.

What I did is reflash it with: http://www.openpandora.org/downloads/Pandora-Flashkit-2010-07-Zaxxon.zip . Then during the setup after I chose the timezone it opens a dialog Please select the date. If I press OK it reappears again. No mater what I do it appears over and over again...

Any suggestions?

Bug in the date script. Something about it not liking the month of August or something.
Two solutions: flash to the latest latest beta hot fix 4 firmware which has the script fixed, or flash with the original firmware from May and manually apply the hot fixes.
 
Thanks for your help!

What I did is reflashed once more in verbose mode. then in the edn i got terminal and set date manually.

Now I got another problem don't know the root password. is there a default one after reflash?

And "sudo passwd" to change the root password :)

Since forum was down yesterday, and I somehow could not manage to set a proper date to pass the loop, finaly decided to get Hotfix 4 and it looks very good so far.
