Crash on initramfs boot on the XX530v

Ah, right. I think I'll hold this off for a while then.

And by re writing several times, do you mean re-flashing the same version or a bunch of try and error from different versions? Because my…

Crash on initramfs boot on the XX530v

Just to confirm something. Is the current build of uboot functional and already tested on the XX530v? I really can't find an easy way to solder wires to the nand chip to recover it, if things go…

Crash on initramfs boot on the XX530v

Ah, I misunderstood the situation, for some reason I was expecting it to be agnostic in relation to the installed system, even though it's the part that boots the installed OpenWRT system...

So…

Crash on initramfs boot on the XX530v

I'm using the ISP Firmware layout, so yeah, that might be the issue. Although I managed to boot the initramfs fine with v59 of the EX530v. Here's the output of /proc/mtd from the original…

I just tested out the v60 build of the XX230v initramfs on my XX530v, boot still fails.

Crash on initramfs boot on the XX530v

By the way, that chainloaded u-boot worked perfectly, I managed to dump the whole ram and the results match agains whatever i came up with while using that initramfs with the wrong mappings, the…

Sorry for the wait, here's the log of that other initramfs that wasnt booting, now with the fixed address, fails anyway, but a filesystem issue now it seems.

Crash on initramfs boot on the XX530v

Oh wow, they have more RAM and still manages to drop packets lol. The stock firmware is a joke, but it would be good practice to keep a backup of it. The EX530 initramfs maps the flash different…

Crash on initramfs boot on the XX530v

Just tries out those builds, the one for the XX230v available on the releases still crashes, the same way as I reported at the start of this issue, not a fluke. The one you just sent here fails at…

Crash on initramfs boot on the XX530v

Hi! The ISP is indeed Algar (color me impressed! How did you guess?). I just tried "openwrt-airoha-an7523-tplink_ex530v_v1-initramfs-kernel.bin" from the latest release on this repo, I'll try that…
