Still we have problems with rootfs_data partition if some openwrt and kernel options are changed or added. Because nobody answered i decided to blind shooting after reading all the info i've could find. Also applied Florian's and Jonas' patches published in linux-mips patchwork without success, so step back to trunk r36529 and now can make all the changes without concern. These are the revisions i've tested: - https://github.com/Pteridium/openwrt/tree/bcm63xx-r37180: a lot of problems with renamed files. - trunk r37745: a bit more stable, but if i do modifications in the kernel config the previous problems appear. - https://github.com/Pteridium/openwrt/tree/bcm63xx-r36529: perfect. Tested with and without procd as init process due to obvious reasons. Little description of the issue using trunk r37745: The test configuration is: BCM63xx SMP GCC 4.6-linaro. uClibc Additional cflag: -mno-synci Little changes in the kernel configuration. - Filenames after fresh flash. root@OpenWrt:/# ls /etc/config 6relayd dhcp firewall luci system uhttpd ddns dropbear fstab network ucitrack wireless - First reboot. root@OpenWrt:/# ls /etc/config 6relayd ddns dropbear firewall luci system ucitrack wireless cpcp dhcp eleld?d fstab nsns twtwork uhttpd root@OpenWrt:/# ls overlay/etc/config cpcp eleld?d fstab nsns twtwork uhttpd dropbear firewall luci system ucitrack wireless - Second reboot. root@OpenWrt:/# ls /etc/config 6relayd droparar firewall luci ttttpd uhttpd ddns dropbear fstab nsns twtwork wireless dhcp elelayd ititrack system ucitrack wiressss root@OpenWrt:/# ls /overlay/etc/config dhcp elelayd fstab luci system twtwork wiressss droparar firewall ititrack nsns ttttpd wireless - Third reboot. root@OpenWrt:/# ls /etc/config 6relayd dhcp firewall luci system uhttpd cici dropbear fstab nsns twtwork wireless ddns elelayd ititckck ststem ucitrack root@OpenWrt:/# ls overlay/etc/config cici dropbear firewall ititckck ststem uhttpd dhcp elelayd fstab nsns twtwork wireless -Fourth reboot (this time is a powercycle). root@OpenWrt:/# ls /etc/config 6relayd ddns elelayd luci ttttpd uhttpd cici dhcp firewall network ucitckck wireless cpcp dropbear fstab system ucitrack root@OpenWrt:/# ls /overlay/etc/config cici ddns elelayd fstab system ucitckck cpcp dropbear firewall network ttttpd wireless - Fifth reboot. root@OpenWrt:/# ls /etc/config 6relayd ddns elelayd luci ttttpd uhttpd cici dhcp firewall rerellll twtwork wireless cpcp dropbear fstab system ucitrack root@OpenWrt:/# ls /overlay/etc/config cici ddns elelayd rerellll ttttpd ucitrack cpcp dropbear fstab system twtwork wireless - Sixth reboot. root@OpenWrt:/# ls /etc/config 6relayd dhcp eleld?d network system uhttpd cici droparar firewall nsns tatab wireless ddns dropbear luci rereless ucitrack root@OpenWrt:/# ls /overlay/etc/config cici droparar firewall nsns system ucitrack wireless dhcp eleld?d network rereless tatab uhttpd - Seventh reboot. root@OpenWrt:/# ls /etc/config 6relayd dhcp firewall luci reressss ucitckck uhttpd ddns dropbear fstab network system ucitrack wireless root@OpenWrt:/# ls /overlay/etc/config 6relayd dhcp firewall luci reressss ucitckck wireless ddns dropbear fstab network system uhttpd - Eighth reboot. root@OpenWrt:/# ls /etc/config 6relayd dropbear ititckck nsns system uhttpd ddns firellll luci opopbear tatab wireless dhcp firewall network ststem ucitrack root@OpenWrt:/# ls /overlay/etc/config 6relayd firellll luci nsns ststem uhttpd dhcp ititckck network opopbear tatab wireless Note: the content of the files remain unchanged despite the rename. I ask for your help because i have tried all that could find and failed miserably. The possible source of this issue (as far i know): - My fault. - Host PC or linux distro. - procd and related stuff? Surely they work in other SMP cpus. - new BMIPS code? with bcm6358 the mentioned issue haven't appeared. Someone published that was very difficult the development for SMP support. - Silicon errata: the SoC in the VR-3025un is bcm6368 rev. b2 with BMIPS4350 V3.1 core. Please, could someone tell any advice to find what is happening?
