Hi
I have dm500 with private server. Is it possible to copy(clone) that box to another dm500?
thanks

yes but only one box can use the server at same time.

if you try to use two at same time most servers will block and ban both box,s.

you need to make a backup.img of your friends box via telnet (thanks to DF)

To telnet, click START > RUN and type Telnet ip.address.of.dreambox
A command window will appear, enter username root and password dreambox.

To backup an image using Telnet

• Telnet to the box and paste the following command:

cat /dev/mtd/3 > /tmp/backup.img

Flash the backup.img to your box with a null modem cable and DreamUp
