Flash instruction using initramfs image:

1.  Prepare the TFTP server with the IP address 192.168.1.111
2.  Rename the OpenWrt initramfs image to "0101A8C0.img" and place it to
    the TFTP directory
3.  Download the official upgrading firmware (ex: pn28240k_v30000.rom)
    and place it to the TFTP directory
4.  Boot M24eG and interrupt the U-Boot with Ctrl + C keys
5.  Execute the following commands and boot with the OpenWrt initramfs
    image

    rtk network on
    tftpboot 0x81000000
    bootm

6.  Backup mtdblock files to the computer by scp or anything and reboot
7.  Interrupt the U-Boot and execute the following commands to re-create
    filesystem in the flash

    ffsmount c:/
    ffsfmt c:/

    this step takes a long time, about ~ 4 mins

8.  Execute the following commands to put the official images to the
    filesystem

    updatert <official image>

    example:

      updatert pn28240k_v30000.rom

    this step takes about ~ 40 secs

9.  Set the environment variables of the U-Boot by the following commands

    setenv loadaddr 0xb4e00000
    setenv bootcmd bootm
    saveenv

10: Download the OpenWrt initramfs image and boot with it

    tftpboot 0x81000000 0101A8C0.img
    bootm

11: On the initramfs image, download the sysupgrade image and perform
    sysupgrade with it

    sysupgrade <imagename>

12: Wait ~ 120 seconds to complete flashing

Known Issues:

- 2x SFP ports are provided as combo ports by the RTL8218FB chip, but the
  phy driver has no support for it. Currently, only TP ports work by the
  RTL8218D support.

Note:

- "Switch-M24eG" is a model name, and "PN28240K" is a model number.
  Switch-M24eG has an another (old) model number ("PN28240"), it's not a
  Realtek based hardware.

- Switch-M24eG has a "POWER" LED (Green), but it's not connected to any
  GPIO pin.

- U-Boot checks the runtime images in the flash when booting and fails
  to execute "bootcmd" variable if the images are not existing.

- A filesystem is formed in the flash (0x100000-0x1DFFFFF) on the stock
  firmware and it includes the stock images, configuration files and
  checksum files. It's unknown format, can't be managed on the OpenWrt.
  To get the enough space for OpenWrt, move the filesystem to the head
  of "fs_reserved" partition by execution of "ffsfmt" and "updatert".

- A GPIO pin on PCA9539 is used for resetting external RTL8218B phy and
  RTL8218FB phy.
  This should be specified as "reset-gpios" property in MDIO node, but
  the current configuration of RTL8218B phy in the phy driver seems to
  be incomplete and RTL8218FB won't be configured on RTL8218D support.
  So, ethernet ports on these phys will be broken after hard-resetting.
  At the moment, configure this pin as gpio-hog to avoid breaking by
  resetting.

Back to the stock firmware:

1. Delete "loadaddr" variable and set "bootcmd" to the original value

   on U-Boot:

     setenv loadaddr
     setenv bootcmd 'bootm 0x81000000'

   on OpenWrt:

     fw_setenv loadaddr
     fw_setenv bootcmd 'bootm 0x81000000'

2. Perform reset or reboot

  on U-Boot:

    reset

  on OpenWrt:

    reboot

OpenWrt logo

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Sunshine!

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.

Requirements

You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.

binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. Run make to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.

  • LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.

  • OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.

  • OpenWrt Routing: Packages specifically focused on (mesh) routing.

  • OpenWrt Video: Packages specifically focused on display servers and clients (Xorg and Wayland).
