    not sure what you mean by "magic up" - do you mean dreamup? there are 2 ways to flash a dm600 -using dreamup and a null modem cable, or using the web interface. the dreamup method is easier but slower and the preferred method if the box is not booting correctly. the web interface method is much quicker but only possible if you can communicate with box OK and identify the IP for connection using internet explorer or similar browser. nfi files are the correct type for the dm600.

          1. Boot the box, goto the communication menu and note the ip address.

          2. Run DCC, connect to the dreambox. Once the network is connected ok, click on the the 'Telnet' option.

          3. In the telnet window, type the following, pressing <return> at the end of each line.

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

          4. You should now get a message saying that the Dreambox is rebooting.

          5. Wait a few seconds and then run Explorer (Firefox or whatever) and enter the ip address of the Dreambox in the address bar.

          6. On the screen that appears, choose the 'Upgrade firmware' option, find the .nfi file and click the 'Flash' button.

          7. Once the progress bar reaches 100%, reboot the box

          all done
