* archer-c60-v1
* tl-wr902ac-v1
* tl-wr942n-v1
* ubnt-uap-pro
* ubnt-unifi-outdoor-plus
The build fails for any of these boards because the resulting kernel
image will not fit into the kernel partition.
When CONFIG_KERNEL_KALLSYMS is not set it could be that the kernel will
fit onto the board again, this is the case for release images.

- RAM: 256MB
- Storage: 1MB NOR, 128 MB NAND flash
- Ethernet: 1x1000M
Installation:
1. Connect to serial console on the board
2. Boot initramfs image over u-boot
3. Copy image to the device and run sysupgrade
Installation without serial console is not supported at this time

- Storage: 16MB NOR SPI flash
- Ethernet: 5x100M (1 PoE in, 4 PoE out)
- Outdoor use ready
This ethernet router is based on the same platform as the hEX PoE lite.
Installation
1. login to the Mikrotik WebUI to backup your licence keys
2. setup a DHCP/BOOTP Server with:
* DHCP-Option 66 (TFTP server name) pointing to a local TFTP
Server within the same subnet of the DHCP range
* DHCP-Option 67 (Bootfile-Name) matching the initramfs filename
of the to be booted image
3. connect the port labled internet to your local network
4. keep the reset button pushed down and power on the board
The board should load and start the initramfs image from the TFTP
Server. Login as root/without password to the started LEDE via ssh
listing on IPv4 address 192.168.1.1. Use sysupgrade to install LEDE.
Revert to RouterOS
Use the "rbcfg" package on in LEDE:
* rbcfg set boot_protocol bootp
* rbcfg set boot_device ethnand
* rbcfg apply
Open Netinstall and reboot routerboard. Now netinstall sees routerboard
and you can install RouterOS. If NetInstall gets stuck on Sending offer
just wait for it to timeout and then close and open Netinstall again.
Click on install again.
In order for RouterOS to function properly, you need to restore license
for the device. You can do that by including license in NetInstall

We use combined option in "mktplinkfw" tool for generating initramfs
kernel images and header for kernel inside "safeloader" image type (in
fact, only for TL-WR1043ND v4 at this moment).
There is also "mktplinkfw-kernel" tool, a stripped-down version, used
only for generating "simple" header, for safeloader image types.
This changes how "mktplinkfw" handles combined images (which then will
allow us to drop the stripped-down version of the tool):
- drop "ignore size" command line option (it was used only for combined
images anyway)
- don't require "flash layout id" for combined images (we don't need and
shouldn't limit size of the initramfs kernel and for kernels inside
safeloader images, the "tplink-safeloader" tool does the size check)
- require kernel address and entry point in command line parameters for
combined images (consequence of previous point)
- don't include md5 sum and firmware length values in header (they are
needed only for update from vendor GUI and are ingored in case of
initramfs and "tplink-safeloader" images)
- drop "fake" flash layout for TL-WR1043ND v4 as it's no longer needed
Also, adjust "mktplinkfw-combined" command in ar71xx/image/tp-link.mk to
match introduced changes in "mktplinkfw" tool.

Use statically defined sizes for kernel and rootfs mtd partitions.
Vendor upgrade script writes both firmware parts independently which

Migrate Arduino Yun from legacy to generic building code.
Note: the mtd partitioning is changed to adopt the LEDE default
partitioning. It allows to have a kernel bigger than 1280k. It is
necessary as kernel > 4.4 with default LEDE configuration grows
bigger.
To use the new partitioning, you need to update your U-Boot env in
advance:
setenv mtdparts "spi0.0:256k(u-boot)ro,64k(u-boot-env),15936k(firmware),64k(nvram),64k(art)ro"
