Ok, got the tsbootrom-update binary over to the SBC, but I must be doing 
something stupid.  For some reason, it won't run it.

$ wget -q http://192.168.0.100/tsbootrom-update
$ ls -la
-rw-r--r--    1 0        0           34158 Jan  1 01:33 tsbootrom-update
drwxr-xr-x   10 0        0            1024 Jan  1 01:03 ..
drwxr-xr-x    2 0        0            1024 Jan  1 01:33 .
$ ./tsbootrom-update
/bin/sh: ./tsbootrom-update: Permission denied
$ chmod 777 tsbootrom-update 
$ ./tsbootrom-update 
/bin/sh: ./tsbootrom-update: not found
$
