Ciao Marco, ciao tutti
questa mail spiega come integrare una nuovo router dentro openwrt.
E' proprio la domanada a cui spesso capita di rispondere, non ultimo
Marco ieri sera.

Riporto la mail centrale ma vi consiglio di seguire tutto il trhead.

Carlos,



I think you will need to make two changes to OpenWRT to make your board work.

I will explain the changes to the source code that will need to be
made at the end of the email.



However for now there is an easy thing you can do.



1) keep your board set to the board name of 96348GW-10

2) flash the firmware from CFE

3) once the firmware is booted and you have the linux shell, type in
this command

                      mtd fix



This re-calculates the checksum and stores it in the flash memory.

This should then mean that when you next reboot, CFE will not have a
checksum error.









To make the board supported by OpenWRT all the time, three things are needed

1) the file target/linux/brcm63xx/base-files/etc/uci-defaults/brcm63xx_fixcrc.sh
needs to be modified.

This file runs once, when the router first boots after flashing
firmware. The script then gets erased so it only runs once.

You need to change this line

"bcm63xx/CPVA642 "* | "bcm63xx/MAGIC "*)

to say this

"bcm63xx/CPVA642 "* | "bcm63xx/MAGIC "* | "bcm63xx/CPVA502+ "* )



2) in the Linux kernel source is this file
arch/mips/bcm63xx/boards/board_bcm963xx.c

For testing, you need to edit this file and add in a new board_id.
Look for how the 96348GW-10 is defined and copy and paste. The
board_name needs to become CPVA502+. Everything else can stay the
same.

You can then re-compile OpenWRT and test this change.



3) if everything works we need to make a patch file for the change to
board_bcm963xx.c and add this to the OpenWRT target source tree so
that everyone else building openWRT will get the linux kernel patched
with the new board_id.





Let me know if you need any help.

I’ve just done all these steps for the BT Voyager 2500V (RTA1046)
router including the mtd fix

Subject: Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] Adding support to a BCM96348 device



Hello All,

Without really knowing what I was doing, I changed the board id. in
CFE from CPVA502+ (default) to 96348GW-10 and OpenWrt booted
(openwrt-96348GW-generic-squashfs-cfe.bin from 10.03.1-rc4)

At first I had access only from serial console, but after bringing
down the br-lan device and giving a valid ip address to eth0 I could
connect to LuCI, enable wifi, etc.

Problem: After reboot, CRC for image a partition [1] is bad and CFE
erases it. (dump below)



So most of the hardware is supported by OpenWrt but seems like it is
neccesary to create some kind of profile for the particularities of
CPVA502+ (original board id).

Please could someone point me if i'm on a good path and how I should
try to do that?

Thank you,
Carlos

Hello all,

I'm new to Open-Wrt and I'm interested in adding support to a
BCM9348 device currently seems unsupported.

The device is an
adsl-voip router called Telsey CPVA502+ which runs linux. I
don't mind giving up adsl or h323 voip when using OpenWrt, but
would like to use it as a wireless router.

I've downloaded
openwrt-96348GW-generic-squash-cfe.bin (and many others) which
the router accepts and flashes but gives kernel panic on reboot
(not syncing: unable to detect bcm963xx board,
serial dump below)

Following the steps found at
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/hw.hacking.first.steps now I
have access to serial port but will need help on gathering
information about hardware and probably further steps.

For now I know it has:

4Mb Flash, 16Mb RAM,
CPU type 0x29107: 256MHz, Bus: 128MHz, Ref: 32MHz


Any hint that could
guide me to the point where OpenWrt works on this device would
be appreciated.

Greetings,

Carlos
