[-- Attachment #1 --] All, So I have a MikroTik RB493G, and I while I’ve got no problems networking booting it or getting an NFS root, via a slightly modified AR71xx config and Adrian’s excellent build scripts. But what I would like to do is get a bootable kernel / MFS image onto that box so it’s self contained. I’ve tried booting OpenWRT onto it and using their wget2nand to flash various types of images onto it - with no avail. ( if only there was uboot for these things ) I’ve searched the archives and found mention, from Luiz, on creating a yaffs image and write it to the NAND. But I’m not entirely sure how to do this ( i’ve looked at the docs, and am still a little lost ). It was for a RB450, but it seems most things regarding the RB450/450G apply to the RB493G. So does anyone have an idea on how to do that? Is it even possible? Additionally - in a few weeks - I’ll have a spare MikroTik CRS-125-24g-1S-2HnD-In ( which is similar to the RB2011, but with a 24 gigabit switch ports and a nifty programable LCD panel ) that I would like to donate to get support for it. It’s AR8327 based, which I know just got support in head. I’m assuming adrian would be the person to talk to, but I could be wrong. Is there interest? It would be a neat box for soft switching stuff, for sure. cheers and thanks, -bp [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJTIPKbAAoJEEInLzcq699t0CgP/jeg+5T9uWkMaZoWmHUQDlI1 QQEV4GPhYT7UYqScMHqgYF3BO7g7ZOGju7qgrrxE4sHdD8IjDZMsPDQskiW34e74 LcOx+bQZRy/raq/2I2u4AWY+86/gMpmSBBEbtOse01Swx3rIdVK8Thwx9V5MwIrF x9SOIA8YkCSvdj1zupRLEIUpeDIZVsFESIu8UJ5oNr8rTAMziDtwt7aNuFF7WG42 y/434loFN1a21Owh48A+dpr4Zj4stv4mazTS9UIlTxpvi6oohZ1jZRZz5EBt+8Me qI+Cl62JfKNA3cgyEGo1kQz2zZpXx1SOlZ569Wos2tOJx1XQVJ6fmiqx5f/4Ebd1 T+/e+qFm8m0LdqKkfxM7+tvIzobYv0kHD/TwZKnAIrMk4X3B6sYuLVvA89IkO8D9 GFRPpHUuUQewdlXyzqaPw+OkPlVKhTrKp92X+Zwf6CcP7w47fYMVgaKwhysMSNSb OnTh4oE9gO/g4x+3rwa02y9phtCgG34fHhzBfGjYHjBO8win8OmXUdsy8L6eAOHb O86NcjB3O+Fwp0g6GzwyTbSejHPU+3fXS9upA1uLzXMKFLYIAWVzZFZ7a3JQ181S XojsycCfJiRq92SfRgtj1k0jZ4ELAHxzSEwd4pY4PYDpbEKWHyXdpvRLcRBHBxda snKwiweRpON2WGqI7bA9 =gR/e -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
