Files

OpenWrt Stable 18.06.2 Image

OpenWrt Snapshot Image

Yggdrasil 0.5.3 Package

Build The Image

First, you will need to grab the [meta-imagebuilder](https://github.com/massmesh/meta-imagebuilder) repository. This repository has a script in it that builds pre-configured OpenWRT images.

git clone https://github.com/massmesh/meta-imagebuilder

Next, build the image using the `build` script.

cd meta-imagebuilder
./build massmesh meshnode espressobin

You now should see `.img.gz` files when you run

ls ./communities/massmesh/meshnode/bin/espressobin/

Flashing

  1. Write openwrt-18.06.2-mvebu-cortexa53-globalscale-espressobin-squashfs-sdcard.img.gz to a microsd card using the following command:
  2. zcat ~/Downloads/openwrt-18.06.2-mvebu-cortexa53-globalscale-espressobin-squashfs-sdcard.img.gz | sudo dd of=/dev/mmcblk0
  3. Run sync before removing the sd card
  4. Insert the sd card into the ESPRESSObin and power it on
