I was running Leaf 4.2.1 because I could not get the latter versions to boot on my old PC Engines boxes.
Just installed 5.0.1 on a PC Engines Geode with a wireless AP. Here are my notes. It was much easier to set up than the notes on the Bering uClibC 5 user guide. I think some of the users guide still reflects versions 3 and 4. For example, it tells you to add modules for wireless card to the modules file. Used Cream to modify syslinux.cfg before first boot by adding usb_wait=3 to the APPEND line. This solved the hang up half way through the bootup that had kept me from uppgrading. I used Terra Term with a serial to USB cable to make initial configurations. Comment ttyS1::respawn: line in /etc/initab to get rid of continual errors - no ttyS1 on the PC Engines boxes. Ran the find and load modules for hardware from the lrcfg menu. Without adding anything to modules.lrp, it found all the ath9k modules and loaded them - dependencies everything - without any input from me. Just had to back up modules. I only needed to ADD one package in leaf.cfg (hosapd). Other packages need were automatically loaded such as two perl programs for shorewall and three packages for hostapd (libssl,libcrypto and libnl3). These have changed - apparently you no longer need libz and libnl. All I had to do was set up the networks, shorewall, dnsmasq and hostapd. I still did the configuration by hand. I did not use the old configdb.lrp file because shorewall seems to have changed the format of some variables. Everything works. Great job and a big thank you to the developers.
