The day before yesterday, I flashed the DL-WRX36 to the OpenWRT system. I used the official tutorial on the forum and a video on Youtube to perform the operation. At that time, I was misled by the video. When I installed the plug-in on the OpenWRT system yesterday, I used the opkg update command in the ssh terminal. Later, After restarting the router, I can't enter the system. I just learned today that the opkg update command will cause the router to be soft-bricked. Now it seems that I can't enter the failsafe mode. Is the kernel damaged? In this case, I can only use the serial Has the interface mode been restored? I'm a newbie at this
you should do a full reset - https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/troubleshooting/failsafe_and_factory_reset#factory_reset
if you added the extra USB recovery params, you should also be able to boot an openwrt image via USB.
It doesn't.
"opkg update" just updates the package lists. It installs nothing.
(you probably mean upgrading some packages with "opkg upgrade")
Okay, I found the problem, it should be the same as this guy's situation.
In that case you con't even need an USB adapter for recovery.
Just just have the correctly named initramfs image on the USB memory stick (as old, small and simple as possible) and you use it to boot into the recovery initramfs image, and from SSH console use the fw_setenv command to correct the openwrtboot item that you now have mangled from @S7venLights advice. After that the normal image should again work.
fw_setenv openwrtboot 'setenv bootargs console=ttyMSM0,115200n8 ubi.mtd=rootfs rootfstype=squashfs rootwait; ubi part fs; ubi read 0x44000000 kernel; bootm 0x44000000#config@rt5010w-d350-rev0'
