    How create a backup of your VU+ Duo image

    As the title, how to create a backup of your VU+ Duo installed image.

    1. Download and extract to your desktop the attached enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-vuplus-nfibackup_1.1_pli_mipsel.ipk

    2. FTP enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-vuplus-nfibackup_1.1_pli_mipsel.ipk to /tmp/

    3. Open a telnet session to your VU+ Duo.

    4. Install using the command below: -

    PHP Code:
    ipkg install /tmp/enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-vuplus-nfibackup_1.1_pli_mipsel.ipk 
    5. Restart Enigma2.

    6. Go to plugins and select VuPlus NFI-Backup.

    7. A backup of your installed image will now be created in both .nfi and usb install formats. This will take a few minutes. NFI version will be in /media/hdd. The USB version will be in /media/hdd/vuplus/duo.

    Now you can take a full 1:1 image backup of your installed images, mess around with other images & easilly re-flash your current image without having to go through all the setups again.

    Enjoy, all credits go to the author of the plugin.

    Re: How create a backup of your VU+ Duo image

    Tried installing this a few times... just doesn't seem to work!

    Every time I try to access Plugins after rebooting enigma2, it says that 'some' plugins weren't found... and then mentions the nfi-backup plugin not found.

    What am I doing wrong? Just want to take a full backup of the image I've got on at the moment...
    Best regards,
