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-mvebu-cortexa72-checkpoint_v-81-ext4-sysupgrade.gz 2c2f96a63b557fdcb2c88d1be834c2d74ed69930271c7ab6d19bf7fa239f5186 openwrt-25.12.5-mvebu-cortexa72-checkpoint_v-81-ext4-sysupgrade.gz
