Greg911P, Did you ever find out how to do this? I've ended up in a similar situation after forgetting to enable SSH before upgrading the firmware. Frontview isn't accessible (Apache is not running I guess) probably because I've got PHP5 installed, and I can't SSH in (in all other regards the box is working fine). I've booted into tech support mode, but like you, I can't work out how to mount the boot partition without MDADM. I'm pretty sure that all I need to do once I mount the FS in tech support mode is to prevent PHP from loading and all will be well again.
I'm wanting to do this now simply because I want to upgrade the firmware to 4.1.14 [T5] to deal with the bash ShellShock vulnerability.
If you did work it out (or anybody else for that matter), I'd really appreciate a hint! :-)
Thanks
