This is how you do it right!!! Took it from Minicat's forum, btw...
IPBox-RSP Enigma 2 in USB-installation guide
At this system version the procedure works only for IPBox 900, 910 9000 and not for 91 (...) mainly due to VFD differences.
All software components referred in this text are part of the “KIT_RSP_E2_Install” archive on your PC Windows. To begin you must extract the KIT on your PC hard disk !

Tools:
1) 1 USB stick (2Gb or higher)
2) 1 null modem Rs-232 cable
3) 1 patch cable ( Box to Router)
Software:
1) KCC ( Kathrein Control Center ) Vers. 3.1 !!!
2) Windows Hyperterminal
3) Any actual standard IPBox image ( AB, NLB, SIF e.g. 9057 )
4) AB U-boot loader vers. 1.3.1 or higher
5) Config-Welcome image ( boot menu environment )
6) RSP e2 image based on SIF 020
*********************************
Step 1
a) We need to change the U-boot loader to a multiboot loader (1.3.1 or higher). To do that, your receiver must be flashed first with a Sifteam, NLB or ***** IPBox standard image (not Enigma2 image !!! ) so fetch the image from “Step1-SIF-Clasic” folder and copy it on a memory stick renaming it “usb_update.img” , insert the stick , press power button and switch on the power ...
b) Fetch the U-boot image (vers 1.3.1 or higher) from the “Step2-AB-uboot” folder and copy it on the memory stick renaming it “usb_update.img” , insert the stick , press power button and switch on the power ...
c) Fetch the Config image (according to your STB model 900/910 ) from the “Step3-AB-config” folder and copy it on the memory stick renaming it “usb_update.img” , insert the stick , press power button and switch on the power ... This start config allow you to start the STB by pressing 1,2,3 or 4 on the RCU and set the appropriate environment variables for the following cases:
Press Button 1: start your image using NFS-server
Press Button 2: start your image using USB pendrive don't have a SATA hdd
Press Button 3: start your image using USB pendrive if you have a SATA hdd
Press Button 4: start your original flash image in the decoder (DGStation's original firmwares or images based on them)
This config image set the STB IP to 192.168.1.8 but ... can be changed !
d) Connect the RS-232 cable from your receiver to your PC and patch cable from the receiver to router .
e) Now switch off your receiver (always from the main power switch!! ) press at remote control 2 and switch on your receiver keep pressing 2 for about 5 to 10 sec. Ok now your receiver booting from the standard image. (if you switch off and switch on again your receiver will be booting from the standard image does’nt need to press again 2.)
*********************************
Step 2
a) As your receiver is turned on and working with a standard image,dont work on it ! just let it stay at “Language” dialog ... plug in the USB stick.
b) Run KCC 3.1 , type the STB ipaddress witch was assigned dynamically by the DHCP! (find out your PC IP address... right click on your local area connection at your PC, choose status then click support), the user name and the password on Telnet and FTP fields.

c) Click on Test to be sure that everything is ok.
d) Now click at the Experts button. If you can see the sda (if you don't have a HDD) or sdb (if you have connected a HDD ) icon in the panel you are on the right way! If not switch off your receiver and make the step 2 from the beginning.

e) Right click to the sda and make a new partition table with Ext2 file system type and you must make more than one partition ( 4 on a 2Gb memory stick automatically sized... but ~500Mb is a good size )

For performance reasons it is advisable to perform formatting under a Linux OS where Fdisk utility allows to choose the cluster (block) size... Windows assumes the default 2 (2 sectors of 512 bytes per block) since the optimal value is 8 !!!
f) As you finish with the partition, switch off the receiver and plug out the USB stick then switch on the receiver wait until the standard image loads and then plug in the USB stick again (this will mount the USB stick with the new volume structure).
g) restart KCC 3.1, click on FTP button, locate the RSP_e2.tar.gz file into “Step4-RSP-e2” folder,navigate and transfer it to mnt/usb/usb0 path.
