OpenWRT - x86 PC - Install to Hard Drive

* Please use combined-ext4.img.gz for the best compatibility *

100! Super!

doesnt work tried 5 times after last process reboot my pc just doesnt boot to openwrt why

Do I need to wipe/format/partition the internal drive before using the "dd" command to install openWRT onto the disk? Or does "dd" wipe it for me?

Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock. When running resize2fs /dev/sda2

Which image now in DEC 2022 for Openwrt version 23.03.2?

generic-ext4-combined-efi.img.gz
generic-ext4-combined.img.gz
generic-ext4-rootfs.img.gz
generic-kernel.bin
generic-squashfs-combined-efi.img.gz
generic-squashfs-combined.img.gz
generic-squashfs-rootfs.img.gz
rootfs.tar.gz

Is there any way we can convert it to bin to flash on real router

Awesome video. Subscribed

Thank you for this tutorial. Works great and out of the box. I did exactly what you've done except the Lan IP. That's the only thing I've changed. Thank you very much

hey thank you for yor info. but i cant figure out.,why you didnt direcltly it. i mean directly write.img on usb?
I do it this way always and everything are OK.
Thank you again👍👍

thanks you. Can you suggest which firmware to install for thinkpad r51 model ?

How come my installation goes well but once I get to the “reboot” part, my pc does not know where to boot. When I go to bios, the original drive is missing and the only boot option I have is the usb with finnix. I can still see my ssd though from the info in bios.

great breakdown even for a dumb person like me to grasp

why i try extract the img it say no enough storage eventho my storage got alot of space

I have a RBM11G with openwrt on it and I can not access Luci threw the web browser and shown no dhcp server in config file. The board powers up and I can ssh into it but can't log into GUI. PLEASE HELP

how about we using external lan?

Hi ! Can you give all the commands used in your video please?

hi bro, please help me. i install openwrt x86 on my laptop and success. and how to share internet on my laptop to router ?

There is mdthod to install vpn to wrt

People are addicted to Microsoft shit !

you make it very simple.

Is there anyway to pre-configure finnix to use SSH to save some work ahead of time?

Hi, I'm able to extend the device. But when i try to extend the FS with resize2fs it says that the tool can't find the superblock for this file system. I do point the start of sda2 as beginning of sda2 (33792 also in my case). After that, if i restart i get boot loop in GRUB phase.
Am I missing something :?

what PC do you use?

kernal in very old in x86 ,could update it manually ?

Can I do 10 GB Networking on my LAN?

If I can, should I get a faster CPU like a Xeon E3-1270 v3 (3.5 Ghz) and an SSD for storage?

Can you do a captive portal tutorial for openwrt

after installing openwrt
pc just stuck at black screen with GRUB massage

Cho mình hỏi là mình có thể dùng rufus để cài trực tiếp openwrt vào cái SSD được không bạn. Mình chưa thấy ai hướng dẫn cách này :(

Bos where are u now?

Mọi người thường hay xài windows vì vậy dùng windisk32 ghi file imgae openwrt vào USB, sau đó boot openwrt từ USB rồi dùng lệnh dd để ghi từ usb sang hdd. Vậy là xong.
