      Hi m8
      the mtd3 image goes in the tmp folder of your box make sure the box you are going to flash is the same as the other ie if its a 1x that the other box is the same a 1x.
      tip (all nokia dboxs are 2x boxes)
      after you ftp the mtd3 img to tmp folder do not power down the box via remote remember to select flash one partition without bootloader.

          should only take about 5 to 10 mins you will see a 2 levels on screen overall progress and curent task progress.

                reboot the box before you transfer the mtd.3 file into temp to clear out all the temp files first. If you don't either the transfer of the file could fail or the flash may fail when you come to do it.
