Non Flashable HD-HG300

Controversy
There is a significant amount of controversy with regards to whether a Non-Flashable LinkStation even exists. Please post your thoughts on the talk page Talk:Non Flashable HD-HG300 or in the forum.

Current State

 * You may have problems flashing these HD-HG300 LinkStations with custom firmwares OpenLink and FreeLink.
 * You always are able to install FreeLink/OpenLink to a LS1/LS2/HG if you pull out the HDD and manually flash the LinkStation's firmware by connecting it to a workstation running Linux and untarring the tmpimage.tgz which is stored inside the image.dat of all firmwares.

Future Plan

 * UBoot is able to load a kernel from /boot on /dev/hda1, so you won`t desperately need a telnet + ftp-enabled firmimg.bin to upgrade the kernel in flash.
