For S8X2 what version should I D/L for my Minix X8 (S802)? M8 or S82?

When I boot to the original Minix all works fine (Harmony remote with Minix 5X as the device) , when I boot to LE it doesn't work.
So I guess its some kind of remote.conf file that the LE doesn't have and Minix and OE did.
Will be happy for any support.

Another question, can I boot from internal memory and not from SD card?

Your ir module needs a different driver that the one used in generic ones but fixing yours will break all the others so not going to happen sorry. Buy a generic NEC remote and use that.

The IR module is not per device?
Is there such module for the Minix so I can update the system via SSH?

It seems obvious: when testing new firmware ALWAYS use the original remote. Using a harmony only adds another "uncertainty" in the chain. Also you can plug in a usb keyboard on your device to configure it, for example enable ssh.

I found the remote. Does nothing. Also in the Harmony I programed again minix 8X and Microsoft MCE. Nothing.
I attached a keyboard and could config the system but I need the Harmony to work.
Any other ideas?

I dont have the original remote. What do you need it for if you have Harmony?
Is there a remote.conf or something that needs to be updated?
By the way, the harmony is configured for Minix device and it worked on the Minix default OS and also when I switched to OE.
Why it doesnt work on the LE?

X8->S82 X8+ i think is S812 and not supported.

How to install?

Used the LE USB-SD Creator and yours S82 file.
In the Minix pressed power+reset.
It started some kind of process and immediately threw an error message.
Something with "beyond repair".

Am I doing something wrong?
Do I need to create special boot dir or something?
(I previously installed OE on the Minix).

Update:
I have changed the partition to 0x81 and then I was able to boot and load LE.
I see the main screen but the remote doesn't work (Harmony 650).
It seems something was changed or lost.
Are you familiar with this issue?
I am kinda of stuck now because I cant do anything with the device and menus....

So an update on current state of S802:
I consider RC4 release the final 8.0.0
Since then i have move forwards to LE-8.0.1 bug fix release and i have no intention to recompile a final 8.0.0
So next release will be based on 8.0.1.
Regards

Hi,

Great, so happy to have updates for my S802 devices.
But I am quite puzzled.
What version should I D/L to my:
1. Minix X8
2. Minix X8-H Plus

Also are there any installation instructions?
