Flashing
| NOTE: During configuration or flashing a device, the only things that should be hooked to the device is the computer and power. |
Flashing OpenWrt
| This device is NOT RECOMMENDED for future use with OpenWrt due to low flash/ram.
DO NOT BUY DEVICES WITH 8MB FLASH / 64MB RAM if you intend to flash an up-to-date and secure OpenWrt version onto it! See 8/64 warning for details. This device does not have sufficient resources (flash and/or RAM) to provide secure and reliable operation. This means that you will not be able to install many packages, and that you might experience crashes due to OOM situations more or less often. See OpenWrt on 8/64 devices what you can do now. |

ar71xx: add support for the MikroTik RB911-2Hn/5Hn boards
The patch adds support for the MikroTik RB911-2Hn (911 Lite2)
and the RB911-5Hn (911 Lite5) boards:
https://mikrotik.com/product/RB911-2Hn
https://mikrotik.com/product/RB911-5Hn
The two boards are using the same hardware design, the only difference
between the two is the supported wireless band.
Specifications:
* SoC: Atheros AR9344 (600MHz)
* RAM: 64MiB
* Storage: 16 MiB SPI NOR flash
* Ethernet: 1x100M (Passive PoE in)
* Wireless: AR9344 built-in wireless MAC, single chain
802.11b/g/n (911-2Hn) or 802.11a/g/n (911-5Hn)
Notes:
* Older versions of these boards might be equipped with a NAND
flash chip instead of the SPI NOR device. Those boards are not
supported (yet).
* The MikroTik RB911-5HnD (911 Lite5 Dual) board also uses the
same hardware. Support for that can be added later with little
effort probably.
Installation:
1. Setup a DHCP/BOOTP Server with the following parameters:
* DHCP-Option 66 (TFTP server name): pointing to a local TFTP
server within the same subnet of the DHCP range
* DHCP-Option 67 (Bootfile-Name): matching the initramfs filename
of the to be booted image. The usable intramfs files are:
- openwrt-ar71xx-mikrotik-vmlinux-initramfs.elf
- openwrt-ar71xx-mikrotik-vmlinux-initramfs-lzma.elf
- openwrt-ar71xx-mikrotik-rb-nor-flash-16M-initramfs-kernel.bin
2. Press the reset button on the board and keep that pressed.
3. Connect the board to your local network via its ethernet port.
4. Release the button after the LEDs on the board are turned off.
Now the board should load and start the initramfs image from
the TFTP server.
5. Upload the sysupgrade image to the board with scp:
$ scp openwrt-ar71xx-mikrotik-rb-nor-flash-16M-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/fw.bin
5. Log in to the running system listening on 192.168.1.1 via ssh
as root (without password):
$ ssh root@192.168.1.1
7. Flash the uploaded firmware file from the ssh session via the
sysupgrade command:
root@OpenWrt:~# sysupgrade /tmp/fw.bin
