Howdy all,

I'm desperately looking for a TFTP boot recovery for a TeraStation TS-XE4.0TL/R5.  I'm trying to get the unit out of an E06 due to all new drives.  I've tried several boot packs from...

...but none have done the job (specifically the XL).  The closest I've gotten is a now defunct mega link to a supposed 'TFTP Boot Recovery TS-XEL.exe'...but it's totally broken.

Luckily for me, all the Buffalo FTP servers I've come across are apparently old & dead :[

The TFTP process itself is working fine and the drive is calling for 'uImage-88f6281.buffalo', which I've had no luck finding, either.  I've got a service request in with Buffalo Support, but have yet to hear from them :[

Would anyone have the foggiest idea of where I could find what I need to make this TS-XE4.0TL/R5 happy again?  I'll be forever indebted and possibly may send you many delicious cookies...possibly ;]

Many thanks,

After trying a million different guides and pursuing a million different links...success!

One very happy + alive NAS!  I suspect this would work quite well with many other "bricked" Buffalo devices, as well.

Happy necromancing!
