FS#3890 - Kernel is wrongly encapsulated #8922

Mijzelf: Also tried snapshot sysupgrade. Same result, CRC error. |
|
abajk: It looks like a similar issue to [1,2]. The kernel is 2.4 MB large, but U-boot only copies 2MB. |
|
Mijzelf: Yes, you are right. Changing the u-boot environment solved the 1st problem. But that doesn't solve the initramfs-kernel problem. Tried also load address 0x88000000, but that gave the same lzma error. /Edit: Should have read better. The stock u-boot in this box is exchanged, as it only boots signed images, or something like that. The current u-boot by default loads 2MiB and bootm that. I changed that to 3MiB, and now the CRC error is gone. But the lzma error on the initramfs-kernel still exists, and the same error occurs if I flash snapshot. |

Mijzelf: Solved. A 'new' u-boot which can extract more than 8MiB target size in combination with the adapted u-boot environment solved both problems. More about the new u-boot here: |

Device ZyXEL P2812HNU-F1
Flashing the sysupgrade of 21.02rc3 bricks the router. Apparently there is a checksum error in the flashed kernel:
NAND read: device 0 offset 0x60000, size 0x2000002097152 bytes read: OK

Verifying Checksum ... Bad Data CRC
ERROR: can't get kernel image!
Further, don't know if it is related, booting the initramfs-kernel.bin doesn't work either:

When tftpbooting the kernel found in the imagebuilder,
openwrt-imagebuilder-21.02.0-rc3-lantiq-xrx200.Linux-x86_64/build_dir/target-mips_24kc_musl/linux-lantiq_xrx200/zyxel_p-2812hnu-f1-kernel.bin
the kernel boots fine (and uses the rootfs which is currently flashed in ubi), and has the same size and timestamp as the one from sysupgrade:
bootm $fileaddrBooting kernel from Legacy Image at 81000000 ...

So my guess is something went wrong in assembling the sysupgrade image, destroying the CRC.
I also tried the initramfs-kernel from the bt-homehub and the initramfs-kernel of snapshot for the p-2812hnu-f1, which both gave the same lzma decompress error.
