Restore of bricked dns323 using backup of mtdblocks, can it be done?

Hi,

I have managed to get a working serialcable. I also have a bricked dns323 rev A.

I have a backup of the ramdisk partions mtdblock0-4. I think I have read that mtdblock2 stores the kernel and block3 stores the ramdisk.

I tried to restore by using uboot command loadb k with block2-image and loadbr with block3-image. But it seems this is not correct.

I think it works for the kernel but the ramdiskt complains about bad Magic number.


Someone with expert knowlegde on this.

I found this thread which says you can do exactly this (Restore of bricked dns323 using backup of mtdblocks, can it be done?)

http://dns323.kood.org/forum/viewtopic. … 56&p=1

It seems most info can be found here.
