      Using same image m8, it backs up fine, you are not pulling the plug on the dbox are you as this will lose all thats in the temp folder

              yeah, don't turn off the box after backup as this clears the /tmp folder (lots of people do this to then take the dbox over to the PC to connect it via FTP)

              the file will be mtd3.img and will be over 8mb in size - easy to spot in FTP , just browse to the /tmp folder (from root)

                      Do you see the progress bar on tv when backing up, and does it finish successfully, if so then the mtd3.img should be there in tmp, if not then try a re-flash and then try again

                          Hi m8,

                          Press the blue button then blue button again and there is a backup image option in that menu, saves the backup as Commando11 to the /tmp folder.
                          Working fine for me.

                          Best of luck

                          Tommo
