Can you not do that through ftp?

Have you tried tuxbox commander? Not sure whether the feeds are active to allow you to install it.

You should upgrade to 3.0 808. May have to upgrade the bootloader too.

Yeah you should be able to do it through FTP.
Laptop/PC needed with dreambox control centre software on it (DCC).
Install software, once installed enter Box ip & router ip into program (which enables you to talk to box)
Plug hdd/flashdrive into computer, then select files from hdd/flashdrive and FTP across into /media/hdd.
That's one way of doing it
