Windows 7 and Internet Explorer.
If memory serves, progress bar did appear and success message displayed.
However,
After initial D-Link login, the DIR-878 failed to identify itself. End result was no access to any configuration controls after few seconds/minutes.
Original shipped firmware method appears to have worked.
DIR-878 crash recovered with D-Link's original firmware, next to D-Link's transitional firmware and finally to D-Link's 1.12 firmware, currently has uptime of 2 days? and counting...

So I made few experiments myself - I've tried to build DLink distributed GPL image - which was not particularly easy to compile and compiled image even didn't boot yet for me (building 1.11 - since sources or 1.20 are not present)
but when going back to 'stock' firmware - recovery firmware refused to accept signed 1.11 dlink firmware
But it has accepted 1.01 - so I guess there are some issue where you may need to go first to some basic firmware and just after that you can go to newer versions.
