Extroot after upgrade on RB760iGS

[kobra]

I just upgraded to 23.05 on MikroTik RouterBOARD 760iGS

ubus call system board

{
	"kernel": "5.15.167",
	"hostname": "OpenWrt",
	"system": "MediaTek MT7621 ver:1 eco:4",
	"model": "MikroTik RouterBOARD 760iGS",
	"board_name": "mikrotik,routerboard-760igs",
	"rootfs_type": "squashfs",
	"release": {
		"distribution": "OpenWrt",
		"version": "23.05.5",
		"revision": "r24106-10cc5fcd00",
		"target": "ramips/mt7621",
		"description": "OpenWrt 23.05.5 r24106-10cc5fcd00"
	}
}

I had extroot on the device but now I don't even see the sd card

# ls -l /dev/mm*
ls: /dev/mm*: No such file or directory

I think I might have needed to install some kernel module

https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/additional-software/extroot_configuration

provides no clues on what needed to be installed

If you're using a USB connected device follow the [USB installation guide link] to set up USB storage in OpenWrt

Guess you didn't read far enough ....

Guess not. The wiki page for the device mentions nothing about these additional steps.

Thank you.

They're not required to get the device up and running, which is what the device page is for...
