Please read this Fonera (uder Installing OpenWrt with RedBoot section, last edited 2008-06-01 14:05:56 by jsefija). Apparently, the steps to upload and flash openwrt-atheros-root.squashfs firmware has been deleted and/or omitted. Can anyone please confirm and to restore this?

I use this on a fon2100 with serial console access to RedBoot:
RedBoot> fis init
RedBoot> load -r -b %{FREEMEMLO} openwrt-atheros-vmlinux.lzma -m xmodem
RedBoot> fis create -e 0x80041000 -r 0x80041000 vmlinux.bin.l7
RedBoot> fis free [now do the calculation with bc]
RedBoot> load -r -b %{FREEMEMLO} openwrt-atheros-root.squashfs -m xmodem
RedBoot> fis create -l 0x6F0000 rootfs
RedBoot> reset
$ bc
obase=16
ibase=16
A87E0000 - A80F0000
6F0000NOTE: This example uses the XModem protocol to transfer the image to the router.

These are the parts that got removed/erased by the last editor jsefija. I have no idea if they got erased by a mistake or on a purpose. Someone needs to put it back before other newbies will get confused. Cheers.
UPATE: OpenWrtDocs/Hardware/Fon/Fonera (last edited 2008-06-03 07:57:44 by abraXxl) already restored the missing steps. Thanks.
The discussion might have continued from here.
