Not used dreamup to do a backup, but im sure someone will be by to help shorlty i think.

I use telnet to do backups as its quick and very easy, have a read of this:

All done in minutes.

I think you can simply click the BACKUP button on Dreamup (instead of the FLASH button) and it will backup the image.

thnax devilish i have sorted that out now just havin a bit of trouble when i power down i have to go in to tubox command var / bin / and select evocamd212 to get it to start up on my old box it starts up auto would be a great hlp if you could shed some light on this thanx

That sounds very weird! I would just reflash it with the backup.

Remember if you are flashing a backup image with Dreamup, when it asks if you want to flash erase after flash, select NO, or else all your backup settings will be lost.
