Ciao!

How are you?

Do you know what the inifamrs-kernal mean?
I know squashfs-factory/squashfs-sysupgrade.

How can I do it or what is it, which is better.

Thanks for you reply.

Take good care,
Patrik

Which device are you talking about?

I just don't understand what the inifamrs-kernal mean.
I have Linksys 1900ACS v2 and D-Link DL-860l B1, but I only use squashfs-factory and squashfs-sysupgrade.

What is the inifamrs-kernal mean?
When would I use those?

Ciao! How are you right now?

So, continuing, like lede-17.01.2-ramips-mt7621-dir-860l-b1-initramfs-kernel.bin, what is it mean? can i use it and if so, what is the difference between lede-17.01.2-ramips-mt7621-dir-860l-b1-squashfs-factory.bin (which I know what it does and how) or lede-17.01.2-ramips-mt7621-dir-860l-b1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin (which I know what it does and how).

Do you mean?

Ciao!
