LEDE/OpenWRT on a PC Engines APU2(c4)

Image
The PC Engines APU2 is a fanless 1 Ghz quad-core AMD GX-412TC x64 Jaguar SoC 4 GB DDR3-1333 ECC DRAM 3 Intel i210AT ethernet ports mSATA slot 2 mini-pcie slots, one attached to a SIM card holder for GSM modems All in all, a pretty decent bit of kit to manage even 1 G Internet, assuming all of it isn't VPN. Mine's currently managing two 50/50 Mbit PPPoE and a VDSL 24/2 Mbit line. I bought it to keep up with the symmetric 50 mbit line I upgraded to and have resources left over for IPsec VPNs, IPv6 tunnels, cjdns tunnels, DN42 BGP VPNs and BIRD6 for my own IPv6 PI space. Standard LEDE install The LEDE devs decided not to have separate targets for the APUx series of boards and went with standard x86 target support. Patches for APU2 board support are in mainline LEDE now so they can be installed via opkg . This is great as you need just dd LEDE version >= 17.01 .1 with luci on to the SSD/HDD/SD/USB, run opkg update and then install these...
