Comment (by andrewhodel@…):

 here is a lot of info on the subject

 /user-AE6XE/flash_mem_map.JPG - this is the real difference

 http://www.aredn.org/content/ubiquiti-airos-56-alert-0 - img is from this
 thread

 here is a fix with serial access:


 {{{
 A process to recover bricked devices due to the uboot AirOS v5.6.x issue
 has succeeded.    Thanks to Bob, W8ERD, for volunteering his node to the
 scalpel.   I'm working on a full write up, but to summarize the very high
 level process, here it is:

 1) Gain access to the motherboard and attach a console to the serial port.
 2) On power up, hit a key to stop the boot process and enter the command
 "urescue -f -e" (runs the internal tftp server and enables the downgrade
 of uboot)
 3) Now "tftp" on the main ethernet port to upload the AirOS v5.5.x
 firmware  (correct uboot version now restored)
 4) Repeat step 2 and 3 with out the options, "urescue" only.  With correct
 uboot version, flash layout, etc. is returned to normal.
 5) Reassemble case and power cycle, booting to AirOS (if encountering any
 issues, without using the serial console access, do the normal tftp upload
 of AirOS v5.5.x a final time)

 This process has worked on a NSM2 and a Bullet so far.

 http://www.aredn.org/content/nanostation-bricked - thread which serial
 solution is from

 and it is also mentioned on the wiki -
 https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/ubiquiti/airmaxm

 it would be real nice if someone was able to make an image that could be
 flashed to a device which is post UBNT 5.6.x firmware
