Flash instructions:
========
1. Manually upgrade firmware using openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-squashfs-factory.bin image.
More details can be found here: https://support.linksys.com/kb/article/6564-en/
After first boot check actual partition:
- fw_printenv -n boot_part
and install firmware on second partition using command in case of 2:
- mtd -r -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
and in case of 1:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel

2. Installation using serial connection from OEM firmware (default login: root, password: admin):
- fw_printenv -n boot_part
In case of 2:
- flash_erase /dev/mtd21 0 0
- nandwrite -p /dev/mtd21 openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-squashfs-factory.bin
or in case of 1:
- flash_erase /dev/mtd23 0 0
- nandwrite -p /dev/mtd23 openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-squashfs-factory.bin
After first boot install firmware on second partition:
- mtd -r -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
or:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel

3. Installation from initramfs image using USB drive:
Put the initramfs image on the USB drive:
- dd bs=1M if=openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-initramfs-uImage.itb of=/dev/sdX
Stop u-boot and run:
- usb start && usbboot $loadaddr 0 && bootm $loadaddr
Write firmware to the flash from initramfs:
- mtd -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
and:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel

4. Back to the OEM firmware:
- mtd -e kernel -n write FW_MX4300_1.0.4.215382_prod.img kernel
and:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write FW_MX4300_1.0.4.215382_prod.img alt_kernel

5. USB recovery:
Put the initramfs image on the USB:
- dd bs=1M if=openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx4300-initramfs-uImage.itb of=/dev/sdX
Set u-boot env:
- fw_setenv bootusb 'usb start && usbboot $loadaddr 0 && bootm $loadaddr'
- fw_setenv bootcmd 'run bootusb; if test $auto_recovery = no; then bootipq; elif test $boot_part = 1; then run bootpart1; else run bootpart2; fi'
