Oh Lord ! OpenWrt just work on Fonera+ !
posted in Embedded |
Yes ! The last OpenWrt snapshot (20080910 (update : 20081015)) just work fine ! Happy time ! Just get rootfs (openwrt-atheros-root.jffs2-64k) and kernel (openwrt-atheros-vmlinux.lzma) then flash it with RedBoot and console adaptater.
Startup :
+Ethernet eth0: MAC address 00:00:00:00:0:00 IP: 192.168.10.10/255.255.255.0, Gateway: 0.0.0.0 Default server: 192.168.10.1 RedBoot(tm) bootstrap and debug environment [ROMRAM] OpenWrt certified release, version 1.1 - built 22:32:28, May 7 2007 Copyright (C) 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 Red Hat, Inc. Board: FON 2201 RAM: 0x80000000-0x81000000, [0x80040290-0x80fe1000] available FLASH: 0xa8000000 - 0xa87f0000, 128 blocks of 0x00010000 bytes each. == Executing boot script in 10.000 seconds - enter ^C to abort
The La Fonera+ (FON2201), with Fon firmware use a second bootloader (stage2) who load the kernel, etc... The OpenWrt firmware don't. Everything just work like with classic Fonera (FON2100). So, we flash it with :
fis init ip_address -l 192.168.10.10/24 -h 192.168.10.1 load -r -b 0x80041000 openwrt-atheros-2.6-root.jffs2-64k fis create -b 0x80041000 -f 0xA8030000 -l 0x006F0000 -e 0x00000000 rootfs load -r -b 0x80041000 openwrt-atheros-2.6-vmlinux.lzma fis create -r 0x80041000 -e 0x80041000 vmlinux.bin.l7
Wait, take a cup of coffee... then take care of Redboot configuration. We have :
RedBoot> fconfig -l -n boot_script: true boot_script_data: .. fis load -b 0x80100000 loader .. go 0x80100000 boot_script_timeout: 2 bootp: false bootp_my_gateway_ip: 0.0.0.0 bootp_my_ip: 192.168.1.1 bootp_my_ip_mask: 255.255.255.0 bootp_server_ip: 192.168.1.254 console_baud_rate: 9600 gdb_port: 9000 info_console_force: false net_debug: false
Ok. Change to :
RedBoot> fconfig Run script at boot: true Boot script: .. fis load -b 0x80100000 loader .. go 0x80100000 Enter script, terminate with empty line >> fis load -l vmlinux.bin.l7 >> exec >> Boot script timeout (1000ms resolution): 10 Use BOOTP for network configuration: false Gateway IP address: Local IP address: 192.168.10.10 Local IP address mask: 255.255.255.0 Default server IP address: 192.168.10.1 Console baud rate: 9600 GDB connection port: 9000 Force console for special debug messages: false Network debug at boot time: false Update RedBoot non-volatile configuration - continue (y/n)?y
Then reboot with reset. And then... let the magic happen :
RedBoot> fis load -l vmlinux.bin.l7
Image loaded from 0x80041000-0x80297085
RedBoot> exec

What the... ?! I see VLAN stuff here. And... we have a bridge too :
brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces br-lan 8000.001884a05b98 no eth0.0
Not very usefull for testing, so :

And :

Nice. Just for fun :

Ok, it work. Let's change the configuration (without uci here). We play with configuration files :
# /etc/config/network
config 'interface' 'loopback'
option 'ifname' 'lo'
option 'proto' 'static'
option 'ipaddr' '127.0.0.1'
option 'netmask' '255.0.0.0'
config 'interface' 'lan'
option 'type' 'bridge'
option 'proto' 'static'
option 'netmask' '255.255.255.0'
option 'ifname' 'eth0.0'
option 'ipaddr' '192.168.0.24'
config 'interface' 'wan'
option 'ifname' 'eth0.1'
option 'proto' 'static'
option 'netmask' '255.255.255.0'
option 'ipaddr' '192.168.10.10'
# /etc/config/wireless

option ssid OWRTplus
option encryption psk
option key 'coucou'
option txpower '18'
The reboot and... :

The La Fonera+ access to internet ! We can install other stuff now. ipkg is dead, we now have opkg and it's allready configured :
root@OpenWrt:/# cat /etc/opkg.conf src snapshots http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/atheros/packages dest root / dest ram /tmp lists_dir ext /var/opkg-lists root@OpenWrt:/# opkg update root@OpenWrt:/# opkg install wpa-supplicant Installing wpa-supplicant (0.6.3-1) to root...

What a good time ! So, reboot and... BOOM !

Strange. Searching, searching... and... what about... :

Ok. My fault ! Passphrase update and Reboot.
Nice, it's alive ! Here we have a La Fonera+ with a nice OpenWrt, two ethernet, a bridge, and a WPA AP WPA...
Hey, OpenWrt guys'n'girls ! What a nice job ! We love you !
