ok m8 ive sent you the files along with some instructions , let me know how you get on.

also the command on toms jtag is not idram it is ldram < (L). i made that mistake aswell and was pulling my hair out lol.

just type detect into the box and once its found ur flash chip type sb5100 and enter and follow the onscreen instructions, it will ask for the bootloader 1st and then the firmware.

or you can just use one of the 2mb dumps i sent instead.
