In the last 2 months an OpenViX/OpenBH team have built multiboot for the Vu+ 4k boxes
The following sounds complicated .... but its not, just follow and all will straight forward.

So flash your OpenViX image with latest image.
On boot, don,t restore settings backup if the system finds one !! Just select screen output (e.g. 1080 or 2160), language and setup internet, then exit out of install wizard. Should go to Menu screen, if so select MultiBootSelector or long press power button -----> select Enable Vu+ Multiboot.
The box will re- initialise and reboot.
On reboot, press Blue button and select ImageManager...........download latest ViX image and hit Blue button (flash) .....you will be presented with the normal slot available display. Choose one and flash.
On reboot, setup as normal.

From then on you are in a normal multiboot setup, so can flash the 3 eMMC slots with different images.
If you have installed an internal HDD, you can add Multiboot slots on a USB stick --------> format a usb stick as ext4(either on PC or via OpenViX) and then restart.
Go to multibootSelector, and choose add usb slots (it will add 4 slots at a time on the USB stick) ---- you will then be able to flash more than 3 slots.

Any issues -----> post here!

I will attempt this later. I did find another instruction on another site and followed that but this sounds more like what I am used to.
