Thanks for taking the effort yourself.

Yours is the second device with "recovered functionality" after performing a "Reset" while running newer than 5.8.7 firmware.
Second device and second model.

On the other one, that person had "Rescue Pack" and its optional add-on "Coward's Rescue Pack" installed at the time.
(RP installs ssh into the other OS, the diags os - which very rarely is touched by an Amazon update.)

There was some discussion about if I should add a recommendation to the JB about installing RP (and optionally, CRP).
But I wanted (and still want) some more rescue stories before I know how to write it up.
