Don't mess with the backup system the 404 has. It's pretty horrible. Instead get a CF or SD card reader for your computer (depending what model 404 you have)

Make a folder on your computer and name it "live set backup" or whatever you want to name it. Drag and drop all the files from the card to your PC. Delete the files on the card and you'll be able to start fresh.

To load backup just drag and drop your backup folder back to the memory card and rename the folder "ROLAND" or whatever the 404 originally names it.
