Try to make a floppy backup. I don't know if Orient has it. In 2.0 final 
is under 'maintenance / backup'

http://your.smoothie.ip.address:81/cgi-bin/backup.img

'Backup
Use this page to create a backup floppy disk or floppy disk image file.

Instructions on creating a backup disk or disk image:

Please insert a blank, formatted floppy disk in the SmoothWall 
computer's floppy disk drive before pressing the button to create the 
backup disk. This disk should be available when reinstalling or 
upgrading, in order for the saved configuration to be restored. It may 
take up to a minute to write the information to the floppy disk. 
Alternatively, you may create a floppy disk image file, which you can 
later write to a floppy disk.'


Hope this helps.
