ath79 / TP-Link CPE510 / tftp: recovery.bin

[Bastian Bittorf]

After flashing trunk to some devices, i'am affected
from the lzma-loader/GCC11 issue. It was possible in
the past to use the standard recovery procedure, but
it seems NOT possible anymore, maybe because of
the changed partition layout?

The bootloader says:
Incorrect File.
Writting error.

Anyway: does somebody know how to access the bootloader?
The password 'admin' or 'tpl' is not accepted and
images are also not accepted.

I'am happy for any hint - thanks a lot,
bye, bastian!
