The easiest way is to use Technomate Control Cente. Here's the methods to flash a TM-9100.

Auto Updater (by Control Center)

1. Download the Technomate Control Center program
2. Open Technomate Control Center
3. Click on Update
4. Enter the IP address of your receiver and click on Save
5. Click on Auto Update
6. Select the Image folder
7. Wait until the download has finished
8. When it says Completed, turn the TM-9100 OFF/ON (from the AC Power)
9. Do a Factory Reset

MMC (Memory Card)

1. Copy all the files into a Memory Card
2. Insert the Memory Card into the TM-9100
3. Turn the AC Power Off/On and Wait for the download to finish
4. When it says Completed, remove the Memory Card
5. Turn the AC Power Off/On
6. Do a Factory Reset

Serial

1. Turn the AC Power Off
2. Hold the OK button on the front panel, and whilst still holding the OK Button, turn the AC Power On. A black screen (uboot) will appear.
3. Open Technomate Control Center 3 and set up the COMPort.
4. Click on File and then go to Files of Type and click on the Down arrow next to it. Select Image (.img). Select the Serial Image (noboot) and click on Open.
5. Press the OK button on the front panel of the TM-9100 to start downloading. If it does not work, press the OK button again.
6. When it says Done on the receiver and Download Completed on the PC, turn the AC Power Off/On.
7. Do a Factory Reset

I think the latest image is EDG-Nemesis 4.4 and should have an addons panel for downloading emu, etc.

If you have an SD card, you can also use jiBoot for multiboot on the SD card like the dreambox does with usb.

The Technomate 9100 (and the Super as well) are Linux based receiver and the firmware is similar to the ITGate receiver, so it only works with hypercam emu for CS.

The best images are EDG-Nemesis and Doume and you should get a fairly good support with them.

Some ITgate (TGS 220) have an unofficial Gemini port , because their hardware is quite similar to the Dreamboxe's.
