I=92ve tried booting OpenWRT onto it = and using their wget2nand to flash various types of images onto it - = with no avail. ( if only there was uboot for these things ) I=92ve searched the archives and found mention, from Luiz, on creating a = yaffs image and write it to the NAND. But I=92m not entirely sure how to = do this ( i=92ve 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.=20 So does anyone have an idea on how to do that? Is it even possible? Additionally - in a few weeks - I=92ll have a spare MikroTik = CRS-125-24g-1S-2HnD-In ( which is similar to the RB2011, but with a 24 = gigabit switch ports and a nifty programable LCD panel ) that I would = like to donate to get support for it. It=92s AR8327 based, which I know = just got support in head. I=92m 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.=20 cheers and thanks, -bp --Apple-Mail=_5A8DBE40-D58B-4A33-83CF-E99799523942 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: Message signed with OpenPGP using GPGMail -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJTIPKbAAoJEEInLzcq699t0CgP/jeg+5T9uWkMaZoWmHUQDlI1 QQEV4GPhYT7UYqScMHqgYF3BO7g7ZOGju7qgrrxE4sHdD8IjDZMsPDQskiW34e74 LcOx+bQZRy/raq/2I2u4AWY+86/gMpmSBBEbtOse01Swx3rIdVK8Thwx9V5MwIrF x9SOIA8YkCSvdj1zupRLEIUpeDIZVsFESIu8UJ5oNr8rTAMziDtwt7aNuFF7WG42 y/434loFN1a21Owh48A+dpr4Zj4stv4mazTS9UIlTxpvi6oohZ1jZRZz5EBt+8Me qI+Cl62JfKNA3cgyEGo1kQz2zZpXx1SOlZ569Wos2tOJx1XQVJ6fmiqx5f/4Ebd1 T+/e+qFm8m0LdqKkfxM7+tvIzobYv0kHD/TwZKnAIrMk4X3B6sYuLVvA89IkO8D9 GFRPpHUuUQewdlXyzqaPw+OkPlVKhTrKp92X+Zwf6CcP7w47fYMVgaKwhysMSNSb OnTh4oE9gO/g4x+3rwa02y9phtCgG34fHhzBfGjYHjBO8win8OmXUdsy8L6eAOHb O86NcjB3O+Fwp0g6GzwyTbSejHPU+3fXS9upA1uLzXMKFLYIAWVzZFZ7a3JQ181S XojsycCfJiRq92SfRgtj1k0jZ4ELAHxzSEwd4pY4PYDpbEKWHyXdpvRLcRBHBxda snKwiweRpON2WGqI7bA9 =gR/e -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Apple-Mail=_5A8DBE40-D58B-4A33-83CF-E99799523942--
