Hi

I have taken a back up using telnet "cat /dev/mtd/3 > /var/tmp/backup.img" and have two questions.

1. Can this image be used with DreamUP or do I have to use "eraseall /dev/mtd/3 && cp backup.img /dev/mtd/3" from var/tmp.

2. Can I use any image from the satpims ‘DM500 Images’ with the "eraseall /dev/mtd/3 && cp backup.img /dev/mtd/3" from var/tmp command (having chanded the file name) or do they need to be loaded with DreamUP.

Thanks for your help.

Sorry I think I have used the wrong Forum so I will re posted in 'Dreambox DM500'. Could I ask admin to delete this one.
