Not sure what happens if it doesn't fit though... Maybe someone else can comment.

However, it could be that you have a lot of "var" stored on your harddisk, and that will never fit in the internal flash anymore.

Try it, I would say. One never knows if the var on the harddisk is larger than the internal flash and it doesn't warn for that. By the way, if you want to copy the files manually, you need to stop Enigma first. This should do that from telnet:
killall start-enigma (although it could be start_enigma too. You will see the proper name if you type "ps" and check the list)
killall enigma

Remember that /var could be still be mapped to your harddisk when you tried to copy the settings. You should use /var_flash instead. But that would give another problem too, I just remember. The setting "move var to harddisk" is also stored in /var and restoring it all would give you a /var on harddisk again.
Well, if you understand what I mean I think you just have to set all your settings manually in the new image.
