Recovery from bad flash?

Received my 3 vocore/docks yesterday.

I installed a development environment and build OpenWRT with Perl support.

I'd love to install it to see if it worked if only I knew how to recover from a bad flash AND where to get the original firmware.

Is anyone fluent in "vocorese"?

i posted some info on flashing firmware in the new to vocore thread, you can backup the config with luci or from the console with sysupgrade

openwrt houses firmwares http://downloads.openwrt.org/ if you can't build it, but the default vocore openwrt firmware doesn't have wifi enabled or luci, if i recall.

you can probably back up the mtd with dd, but i havent tried it yet.

Thx Charliex.
I also posted a new reply on your "notes for new users" topic. Any chance you can turn that thread in some kind of "vocore development manual"?
