WRT1200AC soft bricked

Can anyone point me to or give me directions on how to do a clean install through putty? At some point it seems luci got corrupt and it keeps causing issues with Gargoyle. I can't sign in via the gui and have to put it in recovery/failsafe mode. Doing that I can sign in through Putty. Is there a way to remove everything and then install Gargoyle on that as a clean slate?
Thanks,
Flak

Does this command erase everything so it starts fresh and I just install the firmware via putty?
umount /overlay && jffs2reset && reboot now

Commands via ssh (PuTTY) to flash Gargoyle (1.11.0) firmware:
If you flash from Linksys Firmware, use the Web interface and use this file:
http://www.gargoyle-router.com/download ... actory.img
If you already have OpenWrt or Gargoyle:
Code: Select all
wget http://www.gargoyle-router.com/downloads/images/mvebu/gargoyle_1.11.0-mvebu-cortexa9-linksys-wrt1200ac-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin -P /tmp/
sysupgrade -n -v /tmp/gargoyle_1.11.0-mvebu-cortexa9-linksys-wrt1200ac-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
EDIT:
If you only want to reset to the default configuration (forgotten password, wrong configuration, ...), just go to "
Failsafe Mode" and delete the entire configuration, first try "
Soft Factory Reset" and if it does not help "
Hard Factory Reset" .
