v0.1.0-alpha — MM8108/Gateworks via USB on Pi 5

First image build of openwrt-morse-rpi5 (rpi5-mm-23.05 branch). Built 2026-04-26.

This is an alpha posterity snapshot — usable for HaLow over MM8108 USB, but not feature-complete. A more complete release is planned.

Working

• MM8108 over USB (HaLow board cabled to Pi 5 USB).
• LuCI web UI, hostapd/wpa_supplicant S1G stack, 802.11s mesh, morse-cli/morse-bundle.

Not working / not yet included

• Seeed Studio HaLow HAT (MM6108) over SPI — overlay is in place but the chip isn't binding yet.
• Pi 5 onboard 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi (BCM43455) — brcmfmac driver + firmware not enabled in this build.
• Bluetooth — not enabled.

Images

• squashfs-factory — fresh SD card install (most users want this).
• squashfs-sysupgrade — in-place upgrade from a running OpenWrt squashfs build.
• ext4-factory / ext4-sysupgrade — same, for ext4 root filesystem.

Flash the factory image to an SD card with Raspberry Pi Imager ("Use custom") and boot the Pi 5.
