I am not able to find the documentation to install Lede 17.01.x on
RB951Ui-2HnD.
The device has since then gone into a boot loop. I searched on the
forum as well, but couldn't find a solution.
I've seen a thread in the forum too, (with no answer) so if you
confirm it works either post there or report back here and I'll post
the same instructions there too.

Thanks for your reply. I will put them on the forum as well.
Here are the steps:
1. Download vmlinux-initramfs.elf
(lede-17.01.4-ar71xx-mikrotik-vmlinux-initramfs.elf) and use it as
boot file.
2. DHCP didn't give IP Address. Had to ssh using IPv6 address. Or
statically assigning an IP of 192.168.1.x to my machine.
3. scp lede-17.01.4-ar71xx-mikrotik-nand-large-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
to the router.
4. sysupgrade -n
lede-17.01.4-ar71xx-mikrotik-nand-large-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
5. Router reboots after upgrade
Where did my 20 MB of flash space go?
df -h with old firmware:
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 124.0M 35.4M 88.6M 29% /

df -h with new firmware:

They adjusted partitions (which is why you couldn't just sysupgrade from
OpenWRT).
Actually, with the new firmware you have 10 MB more usable space, even
if partition is smaller.
Look at the "Available" column. Old fw was 88MB, new fw is 98MB.
