[-- Attachment #1 --] Cool - I’ll let you know when the CRS-125-24g-1S-2HnD-In is in hand. And thats great news on the RB450G, though i thought ( and the RB493G ) had AR8316s in them ( I could be, and probably am, wrong though. ). Still awesome to here. I would love to get this thing self contained ( like my RouterStation Pros ). cheers, -bp On Mar 12, 2014, at 5:16 PM, Adrian Chadd <adrian@freebsd.org> wrote: > I mean, I'll take it.. :-) > > I have the RB450 to finish porting, since it has an AR8327 in it. > > > -a > > > On 12 March 2014 16:49, Ben Perrault <ben.perrault@gmail.com> wrote: >> 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.

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?

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 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJTIhBBAAoJEEInLzcq699tbhoP/2bEbEbPhaK0ZF0Q5F/j5iJY NeAOoCt0esQ8vGjqpnftRRI1/0dP819sd9EfAjtAjxMRmxHgli1o1D8zRl5QTLFZ tgX1I1E34wB0Lb3rWcc3r3zSZUvuS2WIqcmgi8HdFoaaaCz+cAZa8OkbxAAI+rJB hMbxmx26zwel+Mf9y8RQfA8L5ZxqTy2l3XI0N5aZB8omzwpS8TWwPvHYuPdyUqTW edr3oUH/YY1uun0h1Wz6ZgqH038FU77QVIEKMtxsHoFholoxw9uvv/RkJmn8mekT ZUd6mKySlsLkE5uhOpQWnJqiOBnsAn0X8gUbaXr12NRInUwCqtoxS4nxC/aMgZt6 lgprCh3UhhEey27hRz16BUMxhyjbUaC5aYFNFp/t8S9IESJNY6YA8Auu9u5zIb5E NAg4K351v/60gcpDSZeTQwd38GUcjiyJMTiNBHfhcQxIA3JHfa4wZwvSkqTaWNHX Fyed9ZmXx6Ju7Oo6uaKGmHFhuDk/zPFlgT8tgaOVFPPD4J7VK+pjPtEq0/uWhZCE EKvCe6pXm1DxK/xmF5fCB4FFJw4FYp5Crqxn7vej8iqI1PU4LI5F6wc1eS4LCCWf 0wtQlsbH94blx7bKKgZb1/RHDzaTf9U/zBeHyJmF+OPlYr0AVjGZ6FopEaXMuOji F1qod3Z8mC1PPhKQ1BYk =oz/z -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
