Hello there,
Recently i started working on an Internet of Things project in my company and for that i'm using a gateway device that currently runs OpenWRT Chaos Calmer. We received a couple of pieces for development purposes from their producer, however it seems they won't update their OpenWRT to the latest version; this gives me some headaches as i really need NodeJS to run on the gateway in order to make everything work since before having this devices i used a raspberry pi with some zigbee/zwave dongles to create a gateway application.
The specs of the device are as follows:
CPU: MT7621
RAM DDR3: 256
NAND Flash: 128
MT7603E for 2.4 GHz WiFi (via PCIe)
MT7662E for 5.0 GHz Wigi (via PCIe)
Zigbee / Zwave NCPs are connected via UART.
I tried building the latest OpenWRT version for it, created a custom DTS file but it only generates the ramips image, there is no sysupgrade-squashfs image there. Whenever i flash the ramips, it works but everything is lost on reboot and the partitions are not mounted by default.
I created the DTS file by simply copying the one from the MT7603 EVB profile and carefully partitioned the NAND flash there; i've also created a new profile and i've specified it's DTS file just like the other profiles do.
Is there anything i'm missing?
Thank you so much for your help!
