I've had to restore the backup image on two different boxes when even the factory default wouldn't work to fix various issues, it was as if I had bad blocks or something that corrupted the flash memory and the restore image. However, I was able to get SSH access through router mode then restore: http://itus.accessinnov.com/Upgrade-to-1-51SP1-td10.html

Some of the other are very knowledgeable in the shield bootloaders and I'm sure they'll chime in when available. In the meantime here are two threads on it:

Regarding bad blocks, when I power on the shield it seems to mention something about that, but like smartphones, some blocks are always bad so not always a cause for concern.

I had no router or bridge image, only the gateway image which I ended up using which allowed me to boot up linux.

It's still not resolved, I now see the router images but I get a kernel panic when I load the router image. I still don't have the octboot.bin file. I tried to upload to the MMC but the ssh session times out, only on that file for some reason.
