black hole full backup

Vu+ Newbie
Hello,
i wonder when you make for example a full backup of a vu+duo.
do we have to flash the boot on another duo before to inject the full
backup that we made with a nother duo, or the boot will be included
inside the full backup.

thank you
 
you would still need to flash the bootloader to any receiver that has not already had this done, as the bootloader is not part of the image or the subsequent backup.

thank you my friend, but i tried before your answer to check the answer from this command under telnet;
cat /proc/mtd

and i obtain this answer from my vu+duo;

root@bm750:~# cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 07600000 00020000 "rootfs"
mtd1: 00400000 00020000 "kernel"
mtd2: 00200000 00020000 "boot"
mtd3: 00100000 00020000 "cfe"
mtd4: 00080000 00020000 "mac"
mtd5: 00080000 00020000 "env"
mtd6: 00100000 00020000 "nvm"
root@bm750:~#

i already try various source for the bootloader(duo_cfe_3_0_usb).
and i got always the same answer, i thought that i should see for
mtd2: 00400000 00020000 "boot"

so i don't know what to do

thank you

hello can someone confirm what is the exact values we have to see when boot is done on the duo.
i saw on different forums various answers, some says kernel and boot must have both
mtd1: 00400000 00020000 "kernel"
mtd2: 00400000 00020000 "boot"
and some others says after successfull update
it must look like this;
mtd1: 00400000 00020000 "kernel"
mtd2: 00200000 00020000 "boot"
so i don't really know what to believe

thank you
