I do see that some device on that list are spec'ed at 16MB RAM, and I
can only guess those are old entries.

My own attempts to get recent versions of OpenWRT running on a FONera
2100 router, which has the same CPU and RAM capacity as your device,
proved futile due to memory exhaustion and random kernel crashes.  Even
without the LUCI UI.
IIRC there are a couple memory leaks with that ethernet driver. I've been meaning to rebase my git and submit some patches for that target shortly.

My understanding is that the memory requirement is a hard limit.

    Hi Ben
    What you means is v3.x kernel don't support 32MB RAM? not the issue of LUCI?


    Everything else works fine, and I can see some devices with same
    hardware on openwrt supported list.
    Also new gargoyle works pretty good.

    During LUCI operations filesystem is heavly  used,
    I can see a 50-90% CPU usage in [spi0] kernel process.

    Using precompiled version helps a little, but it's still unusable.


    Best regards.
