@66enligne What makes you think that the CF-E110N has only 8MB flash?
The bootlog clearly shows 16MB flash. Can you please explain?
The chip on board is a cfeon en25q64hip which is a 64Mb therefore 8MB
In my bootlog it is stated found en25qh64, expected w25q128
I also checked the board and the chip reference soldered onto the board, see attached picture.
I also noticed that you refer to a qca9533 which i didnt found in qualcomm data base as also the chip on my board is a qca9531
Br
Thanks for this information!
Seems like we have a v1 vs. v2 issue here.
Do you have a v1 or a v2?
Is there anything printed on the board that allows identification of your device?
Something like this:
Can you please post your complete bootlog?
Yes I agree, most probably a V1 vs V2 issue.
My model is a V2 (sold as is)
see the PCB top side reference (R169QH_VER1.1)
Bottom side reference is (SR-02A / E258603)
see the bootlog sequence of the snapshot version. (which is operating well as it is but I didnt do any customization nor saving because of the nvram status)

Since we now have one bootlog showing 16MB (see devicepage) and one showing 8MB (see above), I updated the dataentry accordingly.
The question remains how to discern between both versions.
I understand that during the boot process the FW reads the flash type (from boot console messaging) would it be possible that depending on the flash type 8 or 16 the partition memory mapping is adapted accordingly?
As additionnal info here is the memory mapping of the OEM firmware V2.6

In theory, yes (ar71xx) - in practice, in a DTS based target (ath79), no. The concept of device tree is not to rely on heuristics or device specific detection methods, but to hardcode the information via DTS, you'll need to DTS variants here.
In case a new DTS MUST be generated. The existing one is already named V2 and not V1 as it should. Can you rename current V1 in V2, with many references to CF-E110 V2 to modify?? In the new V2 as well the memory type (8MB) and the SoC type QCA9531 (vs QCA9533 for V1) shall be modified
You can include the the common parts (*.dts --> *.dtsi), for the rest you'll have to provide a patch/ pull request.
This can't be a v1 vs. v2 problem, hence renaming would be a bad idea:
- the bootlog on the devicepage indicates it is from a v2 (which has 16MB flash)

What does the Kernel command line: board=... say in your bootlog?
Important as well is if there is a way to determine 8/16 from the OEM firmware.
Here i have a problem because i install the serial console since i've experienced an issue after switching from original eom v2.7 (which i didnt backup) to cf-e320-sysupgrade which was given to operate and failed on my device.
Now any message sent to the console before the line "bootconsole [early0] disable" is corrupted, meaning not possible to read anything.
I donnot understand why because a sysupgrade version should not modify the boot?
At the end either using the cf-e110 snapshot or the v2.6eom the device complete the boot and v2.6 works well in any conf as well as snapshot ethernet lan and wan operate properly (didnt went forward due to the reported nvram partition problem)
No more ideas
Both box and product stickers are CF-E110N V2
Hi Gentlemen
Did you stop to investigate? I hope not.
I realize that I only rely on the RS232 console output without considering the internal log (sorry, I'm not an expert in FW debug). Then i have retrieved the internal log which is not corrupted (donnot understand).
Find hereafter the snapshot log start which gives the machine name CF-E110NV2 and also differentiate the SoC QCA9533 from the wlanphy 9531 (marking on my board chip is QCA9531)

I suspect the topic will close with no answer because of no change since more than a week.
Meaning that I will not be in position to be using openwrt on this machine like on other ones I have in my network.
As a consequence we shall warn users having 8MB CF-E110N V2 devices that Openwrt is not appropriate for them
Very desapointed
If there's a way that an end-user, preferably without cracking the case, can determine if they have a unit populated with 8 MB or 16 MB, then it is straightforward to prepare two variants. Without that, it is "unsafe" to instruct a user to flash OpenWrt on the device.
Since you've got the device in hand, you're uniquely positioned to be able to provide that critical piece of information.
OK, makes sense.
While the EOM FW kernel log is not accesible can I use the initramfs FW version as a probe?
From what I understand this FW donnot load in flash therefore donnot compromise the EOM FW in place.
But this FW as the snapshot does should verify the HW config when the kernel starts and reports info in the kernel log.
Therefore I would get the flash size info without craking the case nor removing the EOM FW.
Is this approach right?? THX to confirm
Oups! Sorry gentlemen i did a mistake. I have reload the OEM and checked the system log from the EOM web interface. And very clearly the flash size is reported. see the sceenshot => therefore easy to manage

Can anyone generate a E110N_V2 8MB compatible version for test? THX
