Can I Change The Default Kernel?

[adibindrianto]

Can I change the default kernel from 5.4-6.6? for openwrt 21-23? what scripts need to be changed or added?

[friendlyarm]

If you want to use openwrt's built-in kernel, you can just compile openwrt directly, If you just want to use an older version of the rockchip kernel, you can switch the script/sd-fuse branch to do so.

[adibindrianto]

but how can change the kernel of existing rockchip in script/sd-fuse? please give me an example of the script to change

[lawrencetg]

for example, switch to kernel 5.10 for rk3568/rk3588:

No, the rk3568/rk3588 platforms have never offered kernel 5.15, so it doesn't exist, and there are only two options at the moment: 5.10 and 6.1.

[adibindrianto]

is it also for soc rk3288? only change 5.10 and 6.1?

[adibindrianto]

i try your script not working for r2s

[lawrencetg]

I tried kernel 5.15 and it could compile but didn't get internet, didn't get ip dhcp, the wan and lan led indicators didn't light up then kernel 5.10 couldn't compile in the same way or changed from 5.15 to 5.10

What is your hardware model, older kernels usually lack support for newer model

[adibindrianto]

my device is nanopi r2s but when I compile it using the latest 6.1 kernel it runs normally, I use a kernel other than 6.1 to use qos limit, does it work or not
