To flash DM600Pvr using Webinterface People with 7020 or 7025 will be familiar with this procedure i have obtained this information of another site i have tried this method on couple of images it does work ****HOWEVER WITH ALL SOFTWARE THINGS CAN GO WRONG ONLY TRY THIS IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING****

The 7020 uses the same bootloader as your 600.
But there is a difference; the 600 has no buttons, to signal the bootloader to accept new firmware.

That's why we implemented this 'software update' thing in the menu, to signal the bootloader through some other means.

Now, if you really can't use dreamup (because you don't have a windows PC for instance), you could try the following:
login with telnet
mount /boot -o remount,rw
rm /boot/*
reboot

Now you've got a box which won't boot anymore, so the bootloader will accept new firmware.
Only do this if you have a way to tell which IP your box got, after you reboot.
Because you won't be able to use your box again, untill you flashed an nfi, using the webinterface of the bootloader.

--- thats not totaly true btw---it has ONE button (power) and it is what u need
-- u have to hold power button during the start up-- and bootloader will accept new firmware (not working with all images btw , but working with original image and GEMINI
