Is it possible to flash Linux kernel directly on BCM43XX - based hardware (ASUS WL-500gP etc.), without using tftp?
According to /proc/mtd, kernel is located on /dev/mtd1: # cat /proc/mtd dev: size erasesize name mtd0: 00040000 00010000 "cfe" mtd1: 007b0000 00010000 "linux" mtd2: 006d0000 00010000 "rootfs" mtd3: 00010000 00010000 "nvram" When we look at the contents of /dev/mtd1, it begins with "HDR0" - so perhaps Linux kernel has to be converted into some special format first? I'd like to be able to flash the kernel without using tftp, just with dd: # erase /dev/mtd1 # dd if=kernel of=/dev/mtd1 Does anyone know a "magic" formula? Having to power off the device and pressing the reset button is boring ;) -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org http://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
