Hi mdgm, thanks for the quick reply!
this is what i done:
format usb with single partition fat32
copied initrd-recovery.gz and NTGR_USBBOOT_INFO.txt and the ulmage-recovery from the rn102 folder to root of usb drive
copied ReadyNASOS-6.2.5-arm.img to root usb drive
plug in usb in front and hold down backup and plug in the unit
after a couple of tries it finally worked this time, looks like it took the firmware and then it shut down.
I powered on but still can't find it in RAIDar and checking on router i don't see a dhcp lease for the unit.
Do i need to put it in OS reinstall now or ?
