Mmm, I was thinking of a hack similar to the one for the ar7: keep the original brn bootloader and create a "compatible" image (I know the format, even if they went out of their way to obfuscate it). Also, for experimenting, I thought of uploading "something" to the device in ram using the bootloader command line, the problem is I don't know how to build that "something" ;-) The bootloader decompresses the firmware at 0x80002000 then it (supposedly) runs it from there, so it should be possible to upload a kernel at 0x80002000 and run it. Or even an u-boot prepared to run from that address and use it to load the kernel via the network (115200 bps is really slow to upload a kernel). > i hope that i will have the time this week to test our own u-boot on the > device.

Besides, I have to keep the original bootloader to have the possibility to reflash the original firmware, otherwise the isp won't give me any support in case of problems (and, no, I don't mean problems with the router but problems in the line). I don't have the service completely activated, but in a short while the only voice line I'll have will be the one provided by the router. > which country / telco distributed the device ? Spain, http://ya.com (now part of France Telecom but formerly part of Deutsche Telekom, in fact I think that telekom in Germany is distributing similar devices, oh, the firmware has some special pages to setup a connection through arcor).
