Question related to my ReadyNas516

1. How can I update the Mono version and what is the latest version i can update to.
2. How to backup the whole readynas
3. Ho...
A config backup restores the configuration for the in-built features, not for apps.
You'd have to note down/backup/restore your app settings/data separately.
If you're wanting to experiment doing things using SSH you're better off doing that initially in a Virtual Machine (e.g. in VirtualBox on your PC) that you can take a VM snapshot of allowing you to roll-back mistakes. Then after trying it out on the VM once you're happy with it give it a go on the NAS itself.
Alright I think i figured it out, one last question.
How would I backup the whole ReadyNas system as a image or file the way it is with all my apps and everything installed in it, That way i can just restore readynas the way it is setup currently.
