I want to install CF on my parents and my aunt's HDR Fox T2s, largely because they're both complaining about the fan noise on high speed so I want to install the Fan package. My parents have an Internet connection cabled to the box so no problem there. But my aunt has no Internet and no intention of getting it. I know the main CF comes on via USB stick but how do I install packages? I can't even login to the webIF since there's no internet.
Is there a way to copy the CF installation including all packages from my parents box across to my aunts? I want the same package setup on both boxes so different config isn't an issue. Ideally I'd like to do the transplant by USB stick, anything more complex isn't likely to work.
The only other option I have at my aunt's is a USB wireless dongle for the HDR Fox T2 (I have one spare) and connect it to my iPad's wifi personal hotspot, I know my iPad has 3G coverage on Three at her place. Does anyone know if this will work, I know it's an internet connection but it's a strange way to set up custom firmware.
