Hi Pau, thanks a lot! It does work that way and the 2
radios are up
and configured automatically. However, the firmware does the same with
both, i.e. create the APs and the mesh.
I could modify that by tweaking the /etc/config/wireless, but is there
anyway that can be done from the "cooker"? I believe that requires
creating a community. What are the steps to do that?

Yes, the best is to create a community. You can use your own repository
(and modify cooker's options.conf) or use the default one [1].
# clone the communities and list them
./cooker --communities
# create your own and the /etc/config directory
mkdir -p communities/YOUR_COM_NAME/mp02-awd/etc/config/
# Any file you put on communities/YOUR_COM_NAME/mp02-awd will be added
to the resulting firmware.
# download the last default lime-config
wget
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/libremesh/lime-packages/develop/packages/…
-O communities/YOUR_COM_NAME/mp02-awd/etc/config/lime-defaults
# modify it to your own needs, here some tips about this file [2]
nano communities/YOUR_COM_NAME/mp02-awd/etc/config/lime-defaults
# And finally cook
./cooker ... --community=YOUR_COM_NAME/mp02-awd
Once you are happy with the result, you can send a pull request to the
network-profiles git repository [1] (so others can also use your tweaks).

[2] http://libremesh.org/docs/en_config.html
Lastly, Elektra and Felix worked in tweaking the
driver to allow to
set the Coverage Class for the Ralink driver. Is there any way I can
use in the cooker command their driver packages (that I have stored
locally) instead of the ones in the repos? I guess it is just by
replacing those within the binaries of the particular target, right?
If the kernel
is the same, then yes. As last libremesh release is using
LEDE 17.02.2, it should be the case. But better ask them.
Cheers.
Thanks in advance

Hi Pau, thanks a lot for wanting to help.
I've only being able
to get to
this today. I installed the building environment,
and tried to
"cook" the
firmware following some directions Nico Echaniz
gave me over the
chat.
We ended up agreeing using this command:
./cooker -c ar71xx/generic --flavor=lime_default --profile=dragino2
--extra-pkg="kmod-rt2800-lib kmod-rt2800-usb kmod-rt2x00-lib
kmod-rt2x00-usb"
At the beginning of the output I get:
./cooker: unrecognized option '--extra-pkg=kmod-rt2800-lib
kmod-rt2800-usb
kmod-rt2x00-lib kmod-rt2x00-usb'
I'll check this, maybe it is a bug.
Meanwhile you can use the system variable PKG
export PKG="kmod-rt2800-lib kmod-rt2800-usb kmod-rt2x00-lib
kmod-rt2x00-usb"
./cooker -c ar71xx/generic --flavor=lime_default --profile=dragino2
Cheers.
So, the cooker builds a firmware that works, but
only using the
primary
radio, the Ralink one does not get configured.
In the github link that you sent me --extra-pkg appears in the
section
"For
a casual cooking on a existing feed
repository". ./cooker -f returns
-> Feeds already downloaded, doing nothing. Use --force to reinstall
but I don't know how to continue from there, as I don't know how
to
"Modify
the source code of the existing feed"
Any way to get around this?
best,
carlos
