Unsupported: NAND flash

Pages in the unsupported: namespace are intended to deliver general information about an “unsupported” status. They should help users to better understand the reasons and the consequences of this “unsupported”.

Since these pages can be reached via a dataentries of very different devices, the descriptions should be of general nature, or cover all the different devices affected by this “unsupported”. They shall not describe any device specifics.

In order to do so, pages in the unsupported: namespace should answer the following questions:

  1. What does it mean, “NAND flash is unsupported”?
    • This means that the NAND flash will not work, you can not use the NAND flash of your device with OpenWrt.
  2. What is the reason for the unsupported status?
    • No Open Source driver available
    • FIXME ...list other reasons...
  3. What consequences does this have in regards to your expectations?
    • Expectation: Full NAND flash available.
    • Reality: No NAND flash available at all.
  4. Will this status change over time? If yes, in what timeframe?
    • Nobody knows. Search the forum for current support status.
  5. What can you do now?
    • Easy / Short term: Get a device where NAND flash is supported OpenWrt, or a device with NOR flash.
    • Hard / Long term: ? FIXME
  6. Where can you find more information about current support status?
