RE650_V2 tiny available flash size

According to the ToH, this device should have 8MB of flash, but I'm stuck with only 960.0K of total space on the /overlay.
Am I missing something or is there something wrong with the device/firmware/... ?

Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root                 4.0M      4.0M         0 100% /rom
tmpfs                    58.9M    996.0K     57.9M   2% /tmp
/dev/mtdblock4          960.0K    856.0K    104.0K  89% /overlay
overlayfs:/overlay      960.0K    856.0K    104.0K  89% /
tmpfs                   512.0K         0    512.0K   0% /dev

The Openwrt image plus other partitions, like boot loader, boot loader data, ART, etc, sits it the other ~7mb.

Thanks, that makes sense. Just for my own edification, why is this not visible when using df? I expected that it would show up as a line showing 100% in use.

Openwrt tries to retain stock flash layout, what you see is based on the layout from TP-Link.

For details do a cat /proc/mtd.
