only other link I found was a generic one:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/fhubs/fh400/fh400icg/fh4trbl
.htm

Best wishes, I have done the same thing before on a corporate firewall once
(a morningstar router), with no backup firmware!  My mentor and I had to
drag a Wellfleet router out and config the corp firewall from scratch (and
mostly memory).  Those were the days :).
