if you created a full image backup with the image manager you can just flash via USB like any other and it will get you up and running instantly.

if you created a settings backup with the backup manager you can restore that during the first install wizard setup screen and it will restore your settings, plugins etc etc etc. you can also restore the settings backup via the backup manager at any time but not a image backup as that needs to be flashed to the box.

Yes, you can extract the image backup to usb stick & flash it in the usual way.
It will contain all plugins/settings you had when you made the image backup, so makes it nice & simple.



EDIT: pheonix beat me too it... please follow his advice.

Thats exactly what i do with the uno, ultimo and my technomates as they require you to press a button on the receiver to allow the flash to go ahead, not sure with the solo though. ( depends on how you have the backup stored ).

no it's not a multiboot, it just allows you to backup the image and restore it as and when you want to.
