Help me to unbrick GFH (14 replies)

Hi! After five hours of mindblowing tries, I come here to ask for help, guys.

I have GoFlex Home 2TB with ArchLinux onboard (if it still there, huh). I want to reinstall it (don't ask me 'why', please) with this manual and after partitioning drive power in my house suddenly goes off... after it recovering I found that my GFH just blinking with green LED and I can't even make SSH to it. It seems his drive was totally cleared. But GFH has not only drive, huh? ;)

So I opened terminal in my MacOS and start listening to 'nc -luk 10.10.10.5 6666'. Hmmm... at least it resolving so now I can load ArchLinux from USB, push old uboot so my reset button start working again, restore GFH to original firmware via this guide and then install Arch again. Let's go!

At first I've installed Ubunti with Parallels Desktop (MacOS and Linux have a 'bit' difference with terminal commands, you know). Then, in Ubuntu I completed this guide with my 2GB USB stick to be able to load from it and then flash default uboot with working reset button. Put it in GFH, restart it and... nothing. Tried to re-format it and put files manually (not via terminal). Nothing. Tried to put files not in root of partitions but in folders 'boot' and 'root'. Nothing! I even tries to do this all but with formatting second (largest) partition not in ext4 but in ext2 - nothing! Of course I followed file copying order and make all changes under root, not just sudo.

Here is some log from nc:

But there is boot img on my USB stick:

Manual reading and usbboot doesn't help me...

** No boot device **

So... now I'm totally stacked. What's wrong? Why it wont to load from USB? And if it totally can't do it because of some unknown reason - how I can restore my original firmware or re-install Acrh if I cant even SSH my device?

Will be much appreciated for any assistance and especially for detailed instruction because I am newbie in all of this. :)
