Ditto on information to further test new Mikrotik models. I'm testing on 912G 5HPnD (BaseBox 5). I had previously loaded Chaos Calmer per the docs on openwrt successfully, but of course no sysupgrade, UBI, squashfs, etc. However, when I test the current LEDE changes, after sysupgrade from RAM, the bootloader doesn't load the kernel. Probably, still trying to load a file in a filesystem ./kernel.
I'm new to Mikrotik hardware, so working to figure out how to gain bootloader console access to see what is going on and configure the bootloader to work properly, assuming this is the problem. Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated. Note, my path of firmware on the hardware is RouterBoard stock -> Chaos Calmer -> LEDE John, follow the directions on the openwrt site under "common procedures for Mikrotik" to "Setup dnsmasq DHCP/TFTP server" using the LEDE RC images. After booting with LEDE ram image, scp to /tmp the LEDE sysupgrade image, then use sysupgrade to flash.
