Reading through that it doesn't seem as if the issue was resolved i have already tried other dtb.img's as well

I had an em95 box with the same message, I had to installtointernal twice for it to work.

tried it numerous times just get the same error message it's strange as out of 2 box's i have one worked fine but the other gave this error.

Reading i around it seems to be a different chipset causing the issue hopefully will get resolved at some point got it running from sd card at the moment but would prefer running from nand.

Why do You prefer running from nand ?

theres no real benefit to running from nand anyway. if it works from sd its always copied to nand for me, make sure theres no other dtb files on sd card after first attempt, then repeat installtointernal.
