Update from OpenWrt Kamikaze 7.06 to 7.07 give a lot of good things. One of them is linux 2.6.21.5. The driver for the i2c bus adapter using GPIO need update. Here is.
While trying to update my Fonera to d'OpenWrt Kamikaze 7.07, i got :
Can't locate c0000(786432) bytes free in FLASH
In others words : unable to allocate 786432 bytes in flash memory, not enough space. There is a kernel size problem with openwrt-atheros-2.6-vmlinux.lzma. Olds OpenWrt Kamikaze kernels are 720896 bytes long (0xB0000) but news ones are bigger : 786432 bytes long (0xC0000). We need to play with RedBoot's images directory.
