Yes, setup tftp on another Linux or OSX box and flash the current uBoot image.

In the example below,

192.168.0.100 is the ip address of the other Linux box
192.168.0.200 is the ip address of this Dockstar (assuming it is the Dockstar)
uboot.kwb is the uBoot image that is retrieved by Jeff script (http://projects.doozan.com/uboot/install_uboot_mtd0.sh) for the Dockstar.

and all commands are executed in serial console prompt (interrupt serial console at the countdown).

setenv serverip 192.168.0.100
setenv ipaddr 192.168.0.200
tftp 0x800000 uboot.kwb
nand erase 0x0 0x80000
nand write.e 0x800000 0x0 0x80000

Please note that this instruction left out the details of how to setup tftp. Please make sure tftp is setup and load successfully. And before running the last 2 commands (nans erase and and write.e) try running help at serial console prompt to check if these commands are available.

If you are not sure, please post the output of the first 3 commands before proceeding to the 2 nand commands! And then post the output of the last 2 commands so we can check before rebooting the box.

Update: sorry I've missed the part that you said you can't write to serial console. Now it is an interesting problem :) is the box the Dockstar or other Kirkwood plug?
