MacRob, please replace the initrd.gz and kernel on the USB key with these:

and try again.
Thanks, but still no luck. I tried manually copying the files to the flash drives after usbrecovery (format+install) is done. Then used rufus to format, usbrecovery to install, then manually copy.
Then I put files in x86 folder and let usbrecovery install after formatting with each option.
Then I deleted all of these files, redownloaded and tried all again (thought maybe something was corrupt)
They all still hang at "booting from external usb".
Can you confirm you're using a USB key with the MBR partitioning scheme and a single partition on it?
Do you have another ReadyNAS or just this one?
