Download the Jade final release for the DM7000
The first Howto below will follow the Windows based dreamUP install
How to use dreamUP - Dream Multimedia offical version Same as the Dm500
The second Howto is not for those with a faint heart. Howto Flash via the root.cramfs method
It means that you use the network connection (or crossover cable) to FTP the image to your Dreambox and to flash it manually.
This way is only supported by the CDK boxes or what are also called Engima 1 boxes.
When you have an UTP (LAN) connection between your PC and Dreambox, do the following:
- Rename the image into root.cramfs (in small letters)
- Copy this root.cramfs with a FTP-software to your Dreambox in the subdirectory /var/tmp
- Push on the Dream or Menu button on your remote control to get into the Enigma menu
- Go to the System Settings menu and choose the Software update
Now choose Software update where you will see 2 possibilities:
- Internet update
- Manual update
Now you choose the last option (Manual Update).

The Dreambox is now looking for your /var/tmp/root.cramfs file and when it is found flashing starts the usual way.
