    Press the D-Box Key
    Choose Service
    Choose Software Update
    Choose Expert Mode
    Choose Read Single Partition Flash without Bootloader

    A copy of your image gets written into the /tmp folder on the DBox2. You can then connect via your FTP Program and save it to your PC.

    Lets know if you want to try this and ile go through it with you .............................Paul
