Hi! And thank you for the release. I'm not sure if this is a problem on my mf286d, since some days it is rebooting by itself, it started happening last week after a software packages update on a generic master 23.5.2. I'm trying to install your snapshot, this is what i used in putty:
nand erase 0x1800000 0x1d00000
setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
setenv serverip 192.168.1.2
set fdt_high 0x85000000
saveenv
tftp root_uImage (your latest initramfs renamed)
bootm $loadaddr
And it sticks on "Starting Kernel ..."
I think I have some dirty partitions somewhere but I'm not sure which ones and what to do. Could be also a defective memory chip since it is running since many years. Not sure about that. I appreciate a lot any small help. Thank you!

I was able to put back the 23.5.2 initramfs, as I try to flash with the
openwrt-23.05.2-ipq40xx-generic-zte_mf286d-squashfs-sysupgrade.binthe router stops booting with this message:@gericho commented on GitHub (May 29, 2024):
downloaded and tried also zte_mf286d-initramfs-zImage.itb and zte_mf286d-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin in here
same results unfortunately

Hi,
@gericho have you tried images from eko.one.pl forum?
https://dl.eko.one.pl/luci/openwrt-23.05/ipq40xx/generic/luci-23.05-snapshot-r23851-eda76b336b-ipq40xx-generic-zte_mf286d-initramfs-zImage.itb
https://dl.eko.one.pl/luci/openwrt-23.05/ipq40xx/generic/luci-23.05-snapshot-r23851-eda76b336b-ipq40xx-generic-zte_mf286d-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
If it still won't load, check the image for Gargoyle https://dl.eko.one.pl/gargoyle-pl/1.14/targets/ipq40xx/generic/gargoyle-1.14.0.3-zte_mf286d-initramfs-fit-zImage.itb (unusual, but it worked for me this way).
I don't know what's going on with some routers, but I check the image before publishing and I have no problems (with booting/updating).

Thank you very much for your help! I'm sure it is not your image release problem. So I was able to access the page on the eko.one.pl firmware and gargoyle as well. but as I reboot the modem after flashing the sysupgrade, it seems it does not save the new sysupgrade. It reboots again on the prompt. Attached the log after the sysupgrade flash and the
printenv. Thank you!
