What you can do is is use "Dreambox Edit 3.0" to back up your Bouquets and /or use Flashwizard 6.3 to back up your image and Bouquets together in case you wanna re-use the same image again. -
Another option would be to get hold of DCC "Dreambox control Centre" and you can Telnet to the box and make a back up of your image...Take a look at the link and you may find it is very simple to do...Hopefully

The safest and fastest way is to use a Telnet session.
Open a command prompt and type Telnet 192.168.x.x - or whatever your Dreambox IP is.
It will then ask you for your username and password, which is usually root/dreambox
Once connected type..
cat /dev/mtd/3 > /var/tmp/backup.img
....to make a backup which will be stored in your tmp directory, simply copy it from here onto your PC, voila it's complete.
To put the image back onto the Dreambox, FTP the image back into the tmp directory then connect to the Dreambox via Telnet as described previously.
Once connected type...
cd /var/tmp - switches to the tmp directory.
eraseall /dev/mtd/3 && cp backup.img /dev/mtd/3 - erases current image and copies backup.img to the correct place.
reboot - Reboots DreamboxComment
