Please Help with meraki mx60w, accidentally the whole thing

sealghost · March 17, 2018, 8:20pm

yes i was able do sys-upgrade properly using gui. it went well. but i can see only one interface eth0 not others. where you able to make your work? . if it is working do you see all the interfaces ?

alphaz18 · March 18, 2018, 5:07am

which version of the image did you use? I used 17.01.4, when I tried the dev snapshot, the other ports wouldn't even light up. so I conclude that the dev snapshot for our box is just completely broken. if you only see eth0 and it upgraded properly, try a factory reset on the settings, it should set everything back to the vlan/switch stuff which is required for all the ports to work properly.

See:

EDIT: That file appears to say "meraki_mx60 600-16010" ...mine reads "meraki_MX60W 600-16015."

guys, any1 can help me with this MX60?

I also deleted whole ubi partitions and one and only way I can reach mx60 is via tftp.
after that i cant flash tar file etc.
I need board-config of MX60 and lil help of some1 from this thread

can some1?

lleachii · July 9, 2018, 3:23pm

Sure...if you Private Message me...and provide the:

Model (MX60, right?)
Serial Number
and MAC address

I'll recreate the board-config.img for you.

You should be able to reach the router after booting it via TFTP.
At this point, you login to LuCI or the command line in order to flash the sysupgrade.

You might have an issue though, since you deleted board-config. This also means you may not have created the recovery partition. Start with fixing board-config, first.

buddy I can't pm you because I'm too young on this forum

Pls pm me

With much thanks
Radek

radziasty · July 10, 2018, 9:14am

@lleachii otherwise i can post mac&sn here but also i need some help with flashing board-config bcs i've never done this by myself.

lleachii · July 10, 2018, 11:01am

I just PMed you. Also, have you seen the Booting and Flashing instructions here?

github.com

riptidewave93/LEDE-MX60-MX60W/blob/master/README.md

# LEDE-MX60
Bringup for the Cisco Meraki MX60/MX60W on LEDE!

**NOTE: This repo is NO LONGER MAINTAINED as these changes were merged upstream. Refer to https://github.com/lede-project/source/commit/a72e1692b8b35d61587d75cf1800eef934203cd2 and enjoy the official LEDE nightles!**

Building
-----
#### Build Only
`./build.sh`

#### Modify Configs and Build
`./build.sh modify`

Note that you will need to run a modify on the first compile to select the apm821xx target, MX60/MX60W device in the LEDE menuconfig.

Booting
-----
The MX60/M60W comes with U-Boot, so you can boot an initramfs image using:
```
setenv serverpath; setenv netloadmethod tftpboot; setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,${baudrate} rootfstype=squashfs mtdoops.mtddev=oops; run meraki_load_net meraki_checkpart meraki_bootlinux

This file has been truncated. show original

You follow the commands line-for-line, until you verify the partition number of board config (I guess this is the step you missed), and creation of the recovery partition (the instructions say 5MiB, you'll need to make it 10.

radziasty · July 10, 2018, 12:31pm

Hi again,

i followed all of theese steps but also i've deleted ubi partitions bcs i though i'll be able to do this process again but i think ive deleted board config as i mentioned in pm to u

lleachii · July 10, 2018, 3:00pm

OK, I PMed you a link to a board-config.img that contains the MAC address and Serial number on your device's sticker.

Follow the Flashing section
At step 5 you will do the following:

# Create board config
cd /tmp
wget http://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.net/board-config-radziasty.img
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N board-config
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -s 126KiB -N board-config
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_0 /tmp/board-config-radziasty.img

Step 6, making the recovery partition (use 18.06 as 17.04 does not work):

cd /tmp
wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/18.06.0-rc1/targets/apm821xx/nand/openwrt-18.06.0-rc1-apm821xx-nand-meraki_mx60-initramfs-kernel.bin

##verify the sha256sum
sha256sum openwrt-18.06.0-rc1-apm821xx-nand-meraki_mx60-initramfs-kernel.bin

##I increased the recovery partition to 10 MiB, 5 is too small for version 18.06
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -s 10MiB -N recovery
ubiupdatevol /dev/ubi0_1 /tmp/openwrt-18.06.0-rc1-apm821xx-nand-meraki_mx60-initramfs-kernel.bin

From this point, you can proceed to use the command line to flash the TAR, use LuCI to flash the TAR file, or reboot into recovery to do so.

Download the Sysupgrade TAR file and perform a normal OpenWrt flash upgrade.

cd /tmp
wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/18.06.0-rc1/targets/apm821xx/nand/openwrt-18.06.0-rc1-apm821xx-nand-meraki_mx60-squashfs-sysupgrade.tar
sha256sum openwrt-18.06.0-rc1-apm821xx-nand-meraki_mx60-squashfs-sysupgrade.tar
sysupgrade -n openwrt-18.06.0-rc1-apm821xx-nand-meraki_mx60-squashfs-sysupgrade.tar

Done!

Hi,

I'm during hardening. Everything went well.

Thanks a lot buddy

raystream · October 17, 2018, 9:53am

i have tried to boot my mx60 but get "no filesystem"
boot_fail

raystream · October 17, 2018, 10:03am

when i change the bootargs to "rootfstype=ramfs" it can find the partitions
but i get this error:
boot_fail_ramfs

lleachii · October 17, 2018, 2:10pm

From your picture, it didn't work.

What version of OpenWrt are you using?
Does your MX60 have a Cisco logo or Meraki logo?

raystream · October 18, 2018, 7:00am

setenv meraki_loadaddr_ramfs 0xbffc00

did the trick
now it can find its ramdisk and boot

jadedrk717 · November 7, 2018, 8:46am

HI, I have lost my board-config for MX60W. I can see that "lleachii" can recreate it, Can you please help me recreate it for me?

I am also new joiner here, so I wont be able to PM you. I can share my MAC and Serial no of device.

I will be very grateful to you.

lleachii · November 8, 2018, 6:04pm

Sent to your private messages.

riptidewave93 · November 9, 2018, 5:15pm

Hey everyone, sorry for the late reply here.

I am trying to recreate this issue on my dev MX60W, but currently am unable to do so using both snapshots or the latest release. @raystream can you please shoot (or re-shoot) me an email? (chrisrblake93 (at) gmail (dot) com).

If I could get a copy of the images you were trying to flash, as well as a full copy of your uboot env, then I might be able to try and nail down what's going on.
