nv-gabor:

Devices tested:

  • Mikrotik rb433
  • Mikrotik rb435g

Software version:
Using the v19.07.1 tag.

Issue: There are a few packages, whose are leading the ramdisk "unbbotable", more precise the device is not able to load the kernel. First this happened by ''kmod-scsi-core'' , I thought it must be some kernel-related issue. Afterthat I realised that either I enable the aforementioned kernel-module, or the libraries called ''libpcre'' and ''libpci'', the boot procedure will stop at:

''Gateway: 192.168.1.254
transfer started ................................... transfer ok, time=2.61s
setting up elf image... OK
jumping to kernel code

OpenWrt kernel loader for AR7XXX/AR9XXX

Decompressing kernel... done!
Starting kernel at 80060000...''

Compiling these packages only as a module results a nice bootable image. Firstly I thought that maybe my ramdisk is too large, but it is about only 4,5 MB - previously using older trunk I was able to boot up images over 5 MByte.
I have pasted the config file to the ticket. If you switch ''libpcre'' and ''libpci'' to ''M'' instead of ''*'' it will boot.

This issue was not there before, using the image built from ''18.06''.
