You can't! I could make a NAND-Backup from my version 121, but NAND-Restore always ended up in "format error". Tried SD and CF cards and all formats. Only old beta3-Backups could properly restore. Don't ask me why!

Actually, the same thing happened for me but with beta3 backup. I formatted my CF card in FAT16 using Zaurus, according to some posts, but it didn't help. Anyone has a clue?

Hmmm. I would try a different CF card just to determine where the problem is.
