Yes, that is correct, i've used the following two version strings with success:

RS.ar7100.FreeBSD - for routerstation

RSPRO.ar7100pro.FreeBSD - for rspro

Just pick the correct one for your board.

I've my scripts here (together with mkfwimage files): /loos.no-ip.org:280/rspro/rs-mkfwimage.tar.gz

Hope it helps.

Cheers,
Luiz
