@mk01:

first of all thanks for your commitment!

Quote:the beta1.2 you are restoring onto is your backup?

yes, it´s a clonezilla backup image of my working beta1.2

I followed your advice of removing modemmanager;
checked /etc/network/interfaces file and first line was missing;
start upgrading;
have an issue on apt-get install xbian-update:

Terminal

Maybe it´s better to restore my working beta1.2 backup, got a brand new sd card and install the official beta2 image using dd for a new fresh start...thanks again for your effort...
