Your Dreambox has booted into rescue mode. If it failed to start up, this mode can be used to recover. This rescue mode offers a web frontend, which can be accessed with a browser, which is the recommended way to continue.

Please point your web browser to: http://192.168.0.37/ In case you don’t mind using the shell, you might be interested in one of the following commands:

run-recovery: Fetches a recovery firmware image from the internet or internal memory (if available) and installs it, replacing the current operating system.

select-boot-source [A|B|C]: Used to select between two possible kernel images (A or B) and the optional second stage bootloader (C). Original firmware uses option A, which can be selected by running „select-boot-source A“.

flash-tarball: Flashes a firmware file provided by you, either on internal or external memory, or via local area network. See „flash-tarball -h“.
