#21371: ar71xx sysupgrade broken in trunk since r47878 for non-nand devices
-------------------------------+---------------------------------------
Reporter: hnyman | Owner: developers
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: highest | Milestone: Designated Driver (Trunk)
Component: base system | Version: Trunk
Keywords: ar71xx sysupgrade |
-------------------------------+---------------------------------------
r47878 broke the sysupgrade for non-nand ar71xx devices.
If a non-nand ar71xx device tries sysupgrade from a firmware revision
47878 or later, the user gets a warning about invalid file in Luci or the
following error at the system console:
/sbin/sysupgrade: .: line 10: can't open '/lib/upgrade/nand.sh'
The reason is explained in https://lists.openwrt.org/pipermail/openwrt-
devel/2015-December/037958.html
r7878 inserted a new file /lib/upgrade/merakinand.sh, which contains a
nand-specific script sourcing. "normal" ar71xx devices now fail due to
that missing script.
If you have installed the broken ar71xx firmware with revision
r47878-current, the easy fix is to manually edit
/lib/upgrade/merakinand.sh file in the live router and remove the line 10
containing ". /lib/upgrade/nand.sh". Below is the same patch for source
repo:

}}}
The file /lib/upgrade/merakinand.sh can be also deleted, as it is not
needed by other devices.
