You just broke your device. ;-)

Some Netgear devices have a special partition often named board_data
before the nvram partition containing some special configuration similar
to nvram. The boot loader uses this configuration. OpenWrt does not have
a automatic detection for it in kernel 3.6 and your device was unknow
and OpenWrt used that flash space for other stuff.

My WNDR3400 V1 is also broken, but I am still able to flash it with the
generic image using "flash -noheader -writechksum : flash1.trx" in CFE.
