Small, not too relevant 'success' - I was not able to build OpenWrt for
this board myself, every attempt failed, but today I found an image
built freshly enough to work with 2011L, so I have something to play
with, not only original RouterOS, where everything is hidden and you do
not see any interesting boot message etc.

This does not bring me further, just shows something could be done...
