Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.288.8_4 /jffs Partition Nuked on Random Reboot

[garycnew]

Hi All:

I've been running Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.8_4 on a GT-AXE11000 for several months.

The firmware has been a bit flaky with the GT-AXE11000 randomly rebooting several times a week.

This time it nuked the /jffs partition removing all the amtm, cert, configs, and scripts.

The following are the jffs nvram variables:

# nvram show | grep -i jffs
jffs2_auto_erase=0
jffs2_ever_erase=1
jffs2_format=0
jffs2_on=1
jffs2_scripts=1
jffs2_state=3
log_path=/jffs

Any ideas why the /jffs partition was nuked? I hope the /jffs partition isn't going out.

Is there an Entware package to recover the /jffs partition?

I believe this is a good time to update the firmware from 3004.388.8_4 to 3004.388.10_2.

Any reason why I shouldn't be able to update remotely (it's a remote device)?

Thank you for your input.

Respectfully,


Gary
