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
| Devices with Broadcom WiFi chipsets have limited OpenWrt supportability (due to limited FLOSS driver availability for Broadcom chips). Consider this when choosing a device to buy, or when deciding to flash OpenWrt on your device because it is listed as supported. See Broadcom WiFi for details. |

bcm4908: enable Netgear R8000P bootloader image This enables building BCM4908 "raw" image that can be flashed using bootloader web UI. It requires serial console access & stopping booting by the "Press any key to stop auto run". It's easy to build vendor like CHK image but it can't be safely flashed using vendor UI at this point. Netgear implements method called "NAND incremental flashing" that doesn't seem to flash bootfs partition as provided. Above method seems to update vmlinux.lz without updating 94908.dtb. It prevents OpenWrt kernel from booting due to incomplete DTB file. Full Netgear R8000P support can be enabled after finding a way to make vendor firmware flash OpenWrt firmware including the 94908.dtb update. |
