I have just received my new N810 and I would like to update the OS to Diablo. Since I have not yet installed any software should I backup something before flashing?

Actually, if you have a 2Gb or greater flash card I'd suggest you clone it using PB's deb, than if ANYTHING goes wrong you can still run, and you can always clone it again later. Or if you find an app you just have to have, but may not be ported to Diablo, you could still run it.

If I had just bought a tablet, I wouldn't want to combine the task of flashing with the task of cloning the system, but I guess it depends on the mindset of the user. I'm positive that many users would find the PB instructions, clear as they are, intimidating for someone who just bought a tablet.

Go to penguinbait.com
right click on ""INSTALL TOOLS EXTERNAL 810 SLOT""
"save target as" (SAVE FILE ON FLASH NOT ON SD CARD)
Save the file somewhere, open application manager and select "install from file" from the menu. Select the file you just saved.
Once the install completes, reboot for your new bootmenu and select your SD card on boot.
