Yes, I had gone through this. But the issue is, there is no .bin file created 
or available for download for Mikrotik RB951Ui-2HnD (ar71xx).

While flashing the device, we copy the kernel to first mtd partition while 
untar the root filesystem to the second partition.

So, if I create root filesystem's tar.gz with kernel included in it, would the 
sysupgrade script take care of this and replace the old kernel with new one on 
/dev/mtdblock1?

Or do I need to hack the sysupgrade script so that it switches to ramfs, does a 
pivot_root and follows the steps of actually flashing the hardware the original 
way?

I am ready to brick one device to try it out, but just wanted to be sure 
beforehand.

Regards,
Nishant
