written firmware successful to boot1…also found a nice guide from daniel here just used usb to transfer the files and used original files without concatenating before
I used the openwrt driver,cleaned it a bit and “fixed” the working-once-issue and added the builtin-firmware (which cannot be added upstream). So basicly working,but no time for upstreaming yet. We need to switch to of_upstream (let uboot use linux dts) to upstream the filogic pci driver port from john.
Does this mean that failsafe functionality is possible via the web UI in uboot? I have used it on other routers before. This should make the unbrick process easier.
I do not know webui in uboot…but this patch is making network-support in uboot mainline once accepted and merged, so you do not need additional patches like in my repo or in openwrt.
Basicly it depends on working uboot and structure of the remaining image how this is done in uboot…not sure how to get a minimal webserver in uboot running. Easies way imho is a initrd which also must not be bricked
