    Plugin to backup your DM600PVR

    Here's a backup script, thanks to mrdude Hidden Content

    Plugin can be found here Hidden Content

    How to:

    Ftp the included files to the dreambox root dir.

    Chmod all the files in usr/bin to 755
    Chmod /usr/lib/tuxbox/plugins/flexmenu.so to 755
    Chmod /usr/lib/tuxbox/plugins/flexmenu.cfg to 644
    Chmod /etc/tuxbox/config/shellexec.conf to 775


    Once done - press yellow on the dreambox remote control to bring up the plugin menu.
    Select 'Backup Your Dreambox'.
    The backup process will take a little while - once complete your new image backup will be created in the /media/hdd folder.

    Use dreamup - to flash back to the dreambox or you can do it the fast way like this.

    Make sure you have some way of giving the dreambox an ip address (connect to a router for example)

    telnet into the dreambox and enter these commands.

    mount /boot -o remount,rw
    rm /boot/*
    reboot

    Once the box has rebooted - it wont appear to come on, just enter the box ip into your internet browser, you will see a web interface to flash the box - use your image, this takes only a couple of minutes - once complete reboot the dreambox and that's all folks.
