Welcome to x86 / x64 r65002 beta release thread for reporting, feedback to developers & community benefit.
Please do not flash builds until installation is understood, risks involved and device specificrecovery methods.
Avoid discussions, create threads for questions, general problems or use search; this thread is not for support.
List router model & version or revision, operating & wireless modes & exact filename/firmware image flashed.
CLI Flash: 'cd /tmp' then 'wget {file URL}' (httponly) or 'curl -O {file URL}' (http, https, ftp) 'write {file} linux' then 'reboot'.
Issues, observations, and/or workarounds reported:
• WebUI: Clear history or use a portable. Temporary cache bypass: Ctrl+F5, Cmd+Shift+R or new private window/incognito.
• Please report findings with steps needed to reproduce, configuration, clients, output, logs and important information below!
Important:
• Detail issues & relevant configs, logs: syslog klog 'dmesg' 'cat /tmp/var/log/messages' nvram set console_debug=1, serial.
• Firewall NAT: 'iptables -vnL' 'iptables -t nat -vnL' 'iptables -t mangle -vnL' & 'cat /tmp/.ipt'. Debug Analyze: stracetcpdump.
• Gremlins: reboot. cold boot. Reset & reconfigure not restore backup. Search Trac & discuss in forum before opening tickets.
• Include operating & wireless modes (e.g. Gateway, Router, AP, SB, WDS, Mesh) and applicable configurations to reproduce.
There are still no 2GB upgrade files yet there are still 2GB image files. There are "EXT4" files in both directories that are 2 GB in actual size. Are they the same thing? In the images there are both options??????
Edit: Also, there are no full EFI upgrade files however there is a public EFI upgrade files.

So I just tried to flash three separate images via Rufus to a freshly wiped hard drive and wiping again between flashes via EaseUS Partition Manager, and none of them could find a viable boot option. I tried each of the images below. There is something really jacked up with these latest build images and upgrade files. It appears it is literally impossible to test the two latest builds in an X86-64 system.
One more weird thing. I checked the hard drive with the latest build against a working version of 64764. None of the partitions appear to be formatted. See image below.

Tried to upgrade from 64453 with the last two builds via my usual
"dd-wrt_x64-webupgrade_public_vga_efi.bin", but neither will install. I get the spinning circle for about two seconds, and then the router home page reopens with no change.

It appears whatever compiler Brainslayer is using to compile all the builds to put in the download folders for all the different models is spitting out bad X64 images. I have not been able to upgrade via the GUI for several builds now so I was doing clean installs to upgrade. Now even the clean install option is not working. Hopefully BS can tweak his compiler to give us usable builds and upgrade files. _________________ Custom computer w/ i7-13700T, 16GB DDR5 Ram, X710-T4L, i226 four port, two RLTK 8127 cards & dual AQC113 M2 slot card.

Perhaps this is tied in to even earlier recent builds where, as posted elsewhere, several upgrades did not keep my settings, but always reverted to default.

That is quite possible. The X86-64 builds are very jacked up. I was unable to do any upgrades so I have had to do clean installs and redo all the settings each time.
I am going to keep the working build I have or possibly going back to OpenWRT for a while until he gets everything fixed however I prefer the DDWRT GUI and I actually get 50 - 100 more Mbps bandwidth with DDWRT. Of course I am already over 1 Gbps bandwidth so I have way more bandwidth than I need but I hate not getting the most I can. _________________ Custom computer w/ i7-13700T, 16GB DDR5 Ram, X710-T4L, i226 four port, two RLTK 8127 cards & dual AQC113 M2 slot card.

I PM'ed BrainSlayer about this issue. I am and still waiting for him to respond. I know he is a VERY busy man. _________________ Custom computer w/ i7-13700T, 16GB DDR5 Ram, X710-T4L, i226 four port, two RLTK 8127 cards & dual AQC113 M2 slot card. Currently running OpenWRT and Adguard.

You have to email him. I still have a PM in my outbox from Mon Mar 02, 2020 11:55.
I linked this thread and query in a reply to another x86-related email thread with him.
Thank you kernel-panic. I will know next time. _________________ Custom computer w/ i7-13700T, 16GB DDR5 Ram, X710-T4L, i226 four port, two RLTK 8127 cards & dual AQC113 M2 slot card. Currently running OpenWRT and Adguard.

and for upgrade you dont need 2gb special files anymore. the partition layout remains. the new upgrade format doesnt need a special 2gb file anymore. it simply writes kernel and filesystem on the current partition layout which was once created using physdiskwrite or dd or by yourself manually. i had to introduce this new webupgrade format to about the troubles with firmware upgrades people had to memory exaust. this new format and the new code works even with low memory
and the .image files using dd and/or physdiskwrite will work as before. i have x64 running here on a test device _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking? Sounds like a Mac to me.." - Louis Rossmann https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL_5YDRWqGE&t=60s

there was indeed a bug for efi based image. i fixed this now. the boot partition was missing. it will be fixed in next build _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking? Sounds like a Mac to me.." - Louis Rossmann https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL_5YDRWqGE&t=60s
