How to reset the admin password for ReadyNAS? Usual methods didn't work for me...

My ReadyNAS doesn't recognize my admin password anymore and trying a password recover fails. I've tried to make an OS install but the only boot option I get while I push the backup button while holding on the reset button on the back is "Normal": Is there any other way to reset the machine? Losing content isn't an issue. Thanks

Model: RN104|ReadyNAS 100 Series 4- Bay

Are you using the procedure on page 22 of the hardware manual?  http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/ReadyNAS_%20OS6_Desktop_HM_EN.pdf
