Although it looks like there is little progress on this project, we are still working on it.
The myDitto NAS that Hendrik is porting OpenWRT to, has a slighly later PHY chip that seems to be not well detected or catered for in the driver module.

MvixBox has the previous version of the PHY chip to that found on the myDitto.The OpenWRT version for the MvixBox is still based on Kamikaze, and it has no ethernet issues based on my usage of it.
The old buildroot for the MvixBox OpenWRT will not work with kernels greater than 3, but I have modified it to work on the last Lubuntu version with that kernel.


We aim to be able to do some differential analysis by running both versions of OpenWRT on both the myDitto and the MvixBox.
Sometimes we do feel like :comp01: :comp01: :comp01:

Hi Greg,

in general I have no problem with giving you the image, but at the moment I have a problem with the ethernet. After a while of communicating with samba or running the device it is not reachable. I have to somehow debug it, but that takes time. So my euphoriia from the beginning is slightly gone :D. To make it short it is not useable at the moment.
Have you got any firmware installed at the moment?

Regards

Hendrik

Hi there,

It has been quite a while since I last touche my myDitto Device.

I would gladly debug your image, and put it to work!

Hey SleepDeprivedLoon,

we can exchange if you want, but I would suggest the build root completely. You sound like you could manage to build it. It could be the chance to get that thing running in the end.
Did you strip apart your device? What skills do you exactly have, because you sound like familiar to that stuff. The main problem seems to be my version of the Ethernet Chip, I think, RTL8211C.
Also if you are familiar with OpenOCD and know how to use it with the Storlink 3516. Do you already know the sites dealing with that stuff? Are you familiar with linux?
BTW: Sorry for the late answer. I would really appreciate one more to help us out, so welcome!

Regards Hendrik
