Transceiver from GL causes dropped characters; using Linksys transceiver

  • possibly solved by "tighter" transceiver construction

Control-C interrupts VxWorks loader, as it does in CFE.

Configured to load XINU from Morbius; hangs on boot.

  • remove first 3 lines of loader/start.S
  • check for serial port hardware address; compatible with XINU?
  • VxWorks starting arguments similar to CFE?

VxWorks will flash over itself with CFE - http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Hardware/Linksys/WRT54G

Trouble with first attempt

Found reference to others loading non-VxWorks kernels using VxWorks bootloader, but no luck with XINU.

Attempted to load micro openWRT kernel and CFE over VxWorks

  • upload failed
  • despite successful upload of original firmware, bootloader refuses to find image on flash
  • possible solutions are loading fresh VxWorks from network or reloading flash through EJTAG port
