installer

============
The stock vendor firmware is a fork of OpenWrt, meaning that the
binary created by :ref:`system-outputs-flashimage` can be flashed
using the vendor web UI or the U-Boot emergency "unbrick" routine.
For flashing from an existing Liminix system (we think) it
is necessary to first boot into a :ref:`system-outputs-kexecboot`
system, otherwise you'll be overwriting flash partitions while
they're in use - and that might not end well.
