Thanks for the thorough forensics. > Do you see a clean way to support this without breaking support for other > boards?

I can already tell you that this is not the case. My hap-ac2 has a 4K hard_config, and from my understanding so do the ones that were tested in PR#3037, like every other mikrotik boards known at the time the driver was last updated. Of course it was only a matter of time before Mikrotik pulled that rug under our feet. Can you provide me with a dump of the Routerboot partition? I’ll take a look at what can be « sanely » done.
