VoCore: SPI & MicroSD 12

Finally it works 🙂 But still not perfect.
Thanks for noltari find the problem. Just change spi speed line in dts, then it works.

Here is the patch and new spi-rt2880.c(rewrite by noltari)
vocore_spi_sd_#1
spi-rt2880

Here is the screen capture.

PS: here is the patch of VoCoreopenwrt-vocore patch
1. change ap to VoCore to avoid ap name conflict with other openwrt device.
2. change default ip to 192.168.61.1 to avoid ap+sta mode ip conflict.
3. change shadow file, so there is default password “vocore”
4. change dts flash partition to fit 16MB flash.(keep the line if you are using 8MB version vocore)

Here is the link of compiled firmware: vocore.16m.microsd.bin

    hey, i tried to flash the linked firmware but got

    someone else has success loading it?

    Make sure there is no sd card in slot when you flash data by uboot.

        That’s what I thought. I also noticed a lack of e2fsprogs so you can’t format the SD card. I’m working on creating my own firmware with it included though.

        I also have no idea where to place the new spi-rt2880.c as I can’t find a old one anywhere in the most up to date pull from OpenWRt’s git repository.

          You need to compile openwrt first, then it will release linux and release spi-rt2880.c from the patch in build_dir.
          Replace it and compile openwrt again, it will work.
          I just did that in this way, no idea if there is any better way.

            Do you have to stop the compile midway through? I’ve managed to completely compile openwrt, but once it’s done, it cleans up after itself and deletes all the kernel source code files.

    hi, i dont manage to load the image from 17-12-2014. every time i try to cp.linux [SIZE] it is not copying anything, its just returning. i tried to call tftpboot first withput success. someone managed it?
