Hi !

I'm new on Raspberry and openWRT. I have purchase a Raspberry Pi B, and want to install openWRT to use my PI, as a wifi router.

My problem : when I boot on this image (http://downloads.openwrt.org/barrier_br … t-ext4.img), USB port and ethernet port seem to be power off (ethernet port not up, USB can't power on my keyboard, ...)

With Rasbian, it's work. Someone can help me ? There is another image for B+ ?

Thanks

Same issue here - but based on when they posted their questions I believe their errors were supposed to be fixed with changeset 14955. Which was based on ticket 14955.

Weird, thought I posted a reply to this....

Anywho found a fix to get up and running. You need to take the latest Raspbian and take all the files from the boot folder and put them in your openwrt's boot folder... files to copy over are as follows:

bootcode.bin
fixup.dat
fixup_cd.dat
fixup_x.dat
start.elf
start_cd.elf
start_x.elf

There was a post I referenced this fix from yesterday but I can't find it now, I'll update if I find it again.

The discussion might have continued from here.
