Hello!
I am installing openwrt on 22.04. I followed this steps mentioned on site
gunzip openwrt-*.img.gz
lsblk
dd if=openwrt-21.02.0-x86-64-generic-ext4-combined.img bs=1M of=/dev/sdX
sudo reboot
On restating I am facing this error. Image attached.
Please (make sure to) use 23.05.2, according to your screenshot you probably need the combined-efi image instead.
I used generic-ext4-combined.img.gz this image. And 23.05 version
.
Using this image "combined-efi" steps of installing are same? Please help
thanks in advance
yes, they are
Just to be clear, clarify the phrase "installing Op on ubuntu 22.04"?
I just wanted to be clear that you do not install OpenWrt "on top of" another OS or Distro. OpenWrt is a full Operating System.
Hello all,
I am trying to install openwrt using following steps:
i) wget https://archive.openwrt.org/releases/22.03.5/targets/x86/64/openwrt-22.03.5-x86-64-generic-ext4-combined-efi.img.gz
ii) gunzip openwrt-22.03.5-x86-64-generic-ext4-combined-efi.img.gz
iii) fdisk -l
iv)sudo dd if=./openwrt-22.03.5-x86-64-generic-ext4-combined-efi.img of=/dev/sda bs=256 status=progress
sudo fdisk /dev/sda

When I am using Gparted with ubuntu 23.10, in gparted section the Move/Resize option is disabled.
I tried this resize2fs command as well with finnix but after reboot black screen is coming. Op is not bootingare you sure you wrote openwrt to the correct drive ?
normally sda would be the flash drive you booted from, in worst case, for you, the fixed storage in your computer.
unrelated, latest openwrt version is 23.05.2.

so where are you installing it ?
on the /dev/sda Corsair ?
on the /dev/sda Corsair :- Yes I am trying to install it on this drive. But Op is not booting after reboot. I tried with latest version as well
if you try to boot it from the sdc Cruzer Blade ?
seems to be the same image written to the drive.
cruzer blade is the usb containing linux iso. So which drive should I use?
kindly help
my bad, the layout is 1:1 with the one written to the sdc Hitachi, not the Cruzer.
makes one wonder what was dd:ed where.
I tried using sdc drive with the latest version. Again the resize/move option was disabled in gparted so I simply rebooted the system.
After reboot this message is flashing on screen.
"Selected boot image did not Authenticate. Press to continue.
disable secure boot in bios, and perhaps enable legacy boot.
I disabled secure boot but the op is not booting. Please help.
kind out of ideas 
pull the drives, dd openwrt to a flash drive, try booting from USB.
what's the hw you use for this, anyway ?
I tried balenaetcher to create a flash oS image of openwrt. But it is showing error. same with the rufus as well. Is there any mistake that I am doing? I tried another linux iso as well. In gparted move./resize option is disabled in that as well.
On enabling the legacy support a black screen with a message press ESC key for start up menu is showing on screen
no camera to post a photo, huh ?
not really helping yourself with the resizing attempts, don't touch the image, write it, boot it (if you can)
