[Avila] OpenWRT on GW2345

Thu Nov 8 11:16:31 EST 2007

I've never used the GW2345 however I can tell you that the GW2348/7 work fine with OpenWRT Kamikaze.

It uses the GPL IXP4xx NPE drivers which work just great.

Here are my notes regarding your fis configuration (these are commands you would issue in redboot to download the images from a local tftp server and create a workable MTD flash partition layout):

;# configure IP addresses and download kernel/rootfs images
ip_address -l 192.168.1.1
ip_address -h 192.168.1.245
load -r -v -b 0x00800000 openwrt/kamikaze/7.07/openwrt-ixp4xx-2.6-squashfs.img
load -r -v -b 0x01600000 openwrt/kamikaze/7.07/openwrt-avila-2.6-zImage

;# create flash partitions (1MB kernel, 2MB rootfs, 4MB jffs (for installing packages))
fis init -f
fis create -b 0x01600000 -l 0x100000 -e 0x0 linux
fis create -b 0x00800000 -l 0xE60000 -e 0x0 rootfs
;# Note: on a 16MB board you can use -l 0xE60000 for the rootfs size
;# Note: on a 8MB board you can use -l 0x660000 for the rootfs size

;# configure boot script
fconfig boot_script_data
fis load linux
exec

;# reset the board
reset

Hi guys,

I’m trying to get OpenWRT
up and running on the GW2345, has any had any success with it?   I can get the
zimage and rootfs created and booted, but I can’t seem to get the onboard
ethernet to work correctly.

Here’s my flashing
and boot log:
