Help unbricking IOmega ix4-200d

Hi after 7 years my iomega stop working, i didn't make a backup of the pendrive from where it has boot and today the pendrive is dead.
I think, ok no problem, I will follow the steps on the forum but doesn't works

I follow the steps on https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096
Where say Note: If this is your first time installation, then you only need rootfs Debian-6.5.7-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2

Also, I follow the steps 4. (Stock u-boot only)

But my iomega doesn't boot, freeze on

Yes, the instruction:

1. Format a new USB drive with a single Ext3 partition, and label it rootfs. This step should be done at Linux command line using fdisk, mkfs.ext3 (don't use GUI or gparted). Once you have booted the box, then you could try GPT partition and/or Ext4.

This stock u-boot might have some limitation regarding the size of the kernel. You are booting using a set of envs that are not from my recommendation.

See here:

Boot Kirkwood rootfs with stock u-boot:
https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,102054,105374#msg-105374

Try booting Debian-6.5.7-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 following the above instruction.
