Hello,
logging through telnet with ffp 0.5 the command in subject fails with "Operation not permitted". Looking at dmesg I find these two lines that I think are relevant:
reloaded for DNS-323, 2007 tp@fonz.de zImage: stat failed (-2)
I am with 1.09b01 firmware (latest beta) and rev C1 of the board. Firmwares 1.07 and 1.08 produce the same result.
uname -a shows:
Linux dlink-7779C7 2.6.12.6-arm1 #47 Mon Nov 30 12:06:02 CST 2009 armv5tejl unknown
So basically I cannot reload a different kernel which sucks since I would like to have the real nfs stuff with kernel support.
Has anyone any idea?
Thanks and best regards.

Hello,
I have added a symlink to zImage-2.6.12.6 provided along with reloaded-2.6.12.6-arm1.ko but now my DNS 323 gets stuck. Even the power button doesn't respond anymore. I have to unplug and replug and restart the unit to get it back working.
Thanks and best regards.

Hi,
I was trying step by step because in the first instance boot.sh failed with "/ffp/bin/sh: ./boot.sh: not found" It seems it doesn't like /ffp/bin/sh. Anyway I managed to create the /tmp/reload-script.sh by executing the same commands at the console:
set -x /ffp/etc/rc stop # clean up the rest killall5 -15 sleep 5 killall5 -9 # filesystems sync swapoff -a umount -a -r sync sleep 2 # boot insmod reloaded-2.6.12.6-arm1.ko machtype=526 kernel=zImage-2.6.12.6 initrd=initrd.gz cmdline=\"root=/dev/ram console=ttyS0,115200 :::DB88FXX81:egiga0:none\" echo "Failed!"
Then I execute the /tmp/reload-script.sh using the same command line
nohup /ffp/bin/sh /tmp/reload-script.sh >/dev/console 2>&1 </dev/null
Then the HD LEDs turn off while the LAN LED still blinks and after a while the unit just powers off.
Thanks and best regards.

Forgot to mention, I am left with a nohup.out that lists as follows:
+ /ffp/etc/rc stop Stopping telnetd + killall5 -15 + sleep 5 + killall5 -9 + sync + swapoff -a + umount -a -r umount: devpts busy - remounted read-only umount: can't remount /dev/sda2 read-only umount: can't remount /dev/root read-only umount: can't remount rootfs read-only + sync
I have observed the sequence quite a few times now and in fact it seems the unit shuts down (no leds) then the LAN led is active. Could it be that it is actually reloading the new kernel but that at some point it fails and the unit is powered off?
I don't have console access for now, I'm getting the hardware to put it in place. Probably it can tell a bit more.

I have no idea why it would just power off. It's the first time I hear that. I think the blinking starts when the box is reset. The new kernel should be loading then.
Of course, there's a lot that can go wrong. While a serial console would help the most, you might want to try try booting the fsck initramfs or try different kernel images.

Hello,
I have tried to step back from 1.09b01 to 1.08 stock firmware by splitting kernel and initrd using the firmware tools but with no success. The unit does restart but with the 1.09b01 firmware again. You can tell it from the uname -a option that shows different timestamps for the kernel depending on the firmware revision.
This does not work with the standard web interface either, I have entered a post about this in the general DNS 323 discussion forum. I got one reply of someone who succeeded in downgrading the firmware but on an A1 version.
I am afraid that the uBoot that comes with the C1 hardware is much more restrictive and rejects firmware uploads that do not come from D-Link and that regress in the version number. In that case I will have to go through the JTAG thing to flash a nicer uBoot. Or maybe there's a magic number to tweak in the firmware somewhere.
The console could perhaps tell a bit more. I have ordered a RS-232 to 3.3V converter and I am waiting... I will then enter a new post with my findings since the subject of this one is not really relevant to the discussion anymore.
Best regards.
