You can save your bouquets to yur PC using Dreamset/Dreamboxedit though.

As far as i am aware.. a fresh flash is not needed for the new 665..
Just do an online update.. and nothing will change..
thank you very much will do that.

658 to 665 on the solo 2 needs a fresh flash I believe as it has a new kernel

Or was it 656 and below that needed a fresh flash?

not needed but is recommended, so far online updates of the solo2 to a build with the new kernel haven't produced any issues that I'm aware of.

Sorry judge that's what I meant to say its recommended ( half asleep) :)
For the sake of 10 mins setting everything up from scratch, may as well do a flash just to be on the safe side

The most easy way is:
1- do an online update to the latest build;
2- make a settings backup via the backupmanager;
3- flash the box with the latest image and use the settings restore during the First Install Wizard using this latest settings backup.
This way you have a freshly flashed box with all your previous settings and plugins (i.e. up & running within 10 minutes).
