Topic: TP-Link Archer C7 V2 Wiki - Flash Layout section

The content of this topic has been archived on 31 Mar 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

I'm trying to help fix potential issues in the Wiki's documentation, so I tought that this place was the most appropriate for posting this.

IMHO for completeness, the Flash Layout section of the OpenWrt's documentation should have two sections: one for the 8MB flash chips and another for the 16MB flash chips.  For my device (Archer C7 V2, 16MB flash chip):

0x000000000000-0x000000020000     "u-boot"
0x000000020000-0x000000120000     "kernel"
0x000000120000-0x000000fa0000     "rootfs"
0x000000fa0000-0x000000ff0000     "config"
0x000000ff0000-0x000001000000     "ART"

Documentation only shows layout for 8MB:

0x000000000000-0x000000020000     "u-boot"
0x000000020000-0x000000120000     "kernel"
0x000000120000-0x0000007e0000     "rootfs"
0x0000007e0000-0x0000007f0000     "config"
0x0000007f0000-0x000000800000     "ART"

Thank you. I added it to the wiki.

You also can login in the wiki and add something information.

@dnkru: Thank you for the modifications.  I didn't know that anybody registered could modify the Wiki without specific permission or minimum post/edit reputation.  Not being an expert on the domain, initially I wanted to discuss the matter with others.
