Sorry, pun intended.

Have been trying to flash OpenwRT on WD My Net WiFi Range Extender, thanks to chunkeey (wiki page).
My trials and tribulations https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=55362

The problem is that Failsafe Mode does not work and I don't know why. I need to run "firstboot" to fix JFFS2.
Is there any other way to force "Failsafe Mode", like from the UBoot prompt by passing parameters to the kernel, as can be done from grub?

Any help/pointers would be greatly appreciated.
TIA, Pepar
