Installation notes

  • Already running OpenWrt or ImmortalWrt: flash the sysupgrade image from LuCI (System → Backup / Flash Firmware) or with the sysupgrade command.
  • The kernel / initramfs image boots from RAM without writing to flash — useful for a first install or for recovering from a failed flash.
  • Verify your download against the published checksum before flashing:
    $ sha256sum openwrt-25.12.5-ipq40xx-generic-avm_fritzbox-7530-initramfs-uImage.itb
    80ac28b7abf6955e30948b5b5e357c643c67e9cdd008610a1574733e1f5596e0  openwrt-25.12.5-ipq40xx-generic-avm_fritzbox-7530-initramfs-uImage.itb
