David,

Here is what I would recommend...

Download and use "N5R2401(141006N)(factory).img"

It will replace the "main" part of memory (the part that needs fixed
and doesn't need to exactly match), but then will stop with an error
when the upload gets to the "aux" part of memory because the firmware
version being uploaded doesn't match the firmware of the radio. This
will leave the "aux" part of memory untouched and it doesn't need
repaired anyway.
