Hi Adrian, this is great work it think!  I've been looking for something
like this for a long time and I'm now about to buy a TL-WR1043ND to try
it out, I've successfully built and image that's now sitting ans waiting
for hardware in my /tftpboot!

One question, hopefully not too silly, is there any way of reverting
a TL-WR1043ND back to it's original firmware after installing FreeBSD
on it?  I.e., can I somehow upload the contents of flash to my tftp
server before I download the FreeBSD image?

Kind regards,

Paul Schenkeveld
