wrong linux_fs_start when using push_firmware without args:

* You should now reboot your box (192.168.178.1). Waiting for shut down.
Switch off, if reboot is not detected because it happens too quickly.
Some newer bootloader versions allow to flash on power-cycle only.

Alien 7330_7320 replace kernel reports:

generating modules.dep
unresolved symbol crypto_alloc_shash in file /lib/modules/2.6.32.61/kernel/lib/libcrc32c.ko
unresolved symbol crypto_shash_update in file /lib/modules/2.6.32.61/kernel/lib/libcrc32c.ko
WARNING: Unresolved symbols detected, not all AVM-features may work.
No current sources by AVM? Error in kernel's .config? Ask fritzbox_info@avm.de for sources!

This is a known dependency problem also in avm firmware:

See "unmet dependencies" in libcrc32c.ko.

The kernel runs fine.

For 7320 and 7320_7330 the passwd applet obviously messes the login. SSH login with freetz works but saving a new pw makes subsequent logins impossible. The only workaround is to ctrl-c when asked for a new password and freetz will continue to work.

The original shadow file from var.tar:

After logging in an using freetz as the new password:

Workarounds:

• Ctrl-C before typing in a new password will preserve the default
• Using Rudi-Shell to restore the default password:

cd / && tar xvf var.tar ./var/tmp/shadow

After ctrl-c on default login this works:

passwd -a dec

Creates this working shadow file:

remove support should have an option to keep support.lua, since it has more functions than only supportdata.
