Hi guys,

Unfortunately something went wrong with the last compiled brcm2708 generic image at the current snapshot (May 1st). In the past I could use that image for both Raspberry Pi B+ (BCM2708) and Raspberry Pi 2 (BCM2709) without any problems.
However the last snapshot for brcm2708 of the trunk just boot on the Raspberry Pi B+ and stuck at the initial boot sequence with this symbol � on the serial console booting it on a Raspberry Pi 2.
Even on the HDMI screen I couldn't find any output. But obviously there seems to be a connection to this topic:
https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=57106

Could anybody of the developer have a look on this issue?

By the way, in the last time I have had always to edit the /etc/opkg.conf manually because the placed update paths do not fit to the trunk structure on the webserver.

/etc/opkg.conf:
src/gz chaos_calmer_base http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … kages/base
src/gz chaos_calmer_luci http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … kages/luci
src/gz chaos_calmer_management http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … management
src/gz chaos_calmer_packages http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … s/packages
src/gz chaos_calmer_routing http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … es/routing
src/gz chaos_calmer_telephony http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … /telephony

structure on the webserver:
https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots … 8/generic/

Thanks for all your work!

Cheers

Hey all,

https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots … ric/config

shows

CONFIG_TARGET_brcm2708_bcm2708=y
# CONFIG_TARGET_brcm2708_bcm2709 is not set
CONFIG_TARGET_brcm2708_bcm2708_RaspberryPi=y

it is not compiled for the Raspberry Pi 2 :-(

Thanks.

OpenWRT 15.05 Chaos Calmer runs well on the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B if the CONFIG_TARGET_brcm2708_bcm2709 buildroot option is enabled, but there aren't any official installers or binary packages published for it yet.

Hey dajhorn,

yes, I know. Unfortunately I have had to build the image and the basic packages by myself. :-(

@DeveloperTeam: However, are there any reasons that the aren't any official images / packages published yet? 
The Raspbian Pi 2 Model B is becoming more and more popular, compared to the older one. How can we help to get an officially provided images and packages from the trunk in the download section?

Thanks!
Cheers

Official builds for the Raspberry Pi 2 were published as part of the release candidate today:

Thanks :-)

However, I have to note that there is a tiny bug in the /etc/opkg.conf.

The last line: src/gz chaos_calmer_targets http://downloads.openwrt.org/chaos_calm … es/targets doesn't fit to the download section on https://downloads.openwrt.org/chaos_cal … /packages/

The referenced folder "targets" is called "packages" on the download section. You have to edit it, otherwise the opkg update failed.

Thanks for keep this in mind for the rc2. ;-)
