It should be the BH 1.4.5.
 
Thank you Paolino

:) I'm sure it a SOLO

another question Plz
is it possible to do a backup before I update the bootloader and the image ??
 
I don't have experiences with BH 1.4.5, now it's Fullbackup plugin, which allows you to do a full backup of your image. I think, that for you is important to do only your settings backup if you plan to upgrade to BH 2.0.1. I'm using Vu+ Control Centre (VUCC) and Dream Settings (2 backups is better than 1).
 
4. If solo's front led blinks continuously, restart box.

if the front led blinks does it mean it's updated or not ??
 
Like vuplus is telling, it's done (bootloader update for bigger then 48MB images). Remove your stick and reboot. Next you can update your image.
 
Thanks a lot Paolino for your help
i'll try to find some info on updating BH
juts one more thing, do i still need to do something else before I install BH ??
 
If you did a backup of your settings (it's not necessary, you can do a sat scan again).
