Specifications:
- SoC: Broadcom BCM63168 dual 400MHz MIPS
- Flash: 128MB NAND ESMT F59L1G81A
- RAM: 128MB DDR3
- Ethernet: 5x 1000M
- Wifi: BCM435F
- 1x USB 2.0 port
- 2x Button
- 11x LED
- Coax HPNA (unsupported)
- RJ11 xDSL (unsupported)
Install instructions:
The booloader will only install signed firmware so the image has to
be manually flashed.
- Set up a TFTP server on 192.168.1.0/24 to serve the initramfs image
- Interrupt the bootloader and run from RAM with
r 192.168.1.100:openwrt-bmips-bcm63268-actiontec_t1200h-initramfs.elf
- On the openwrt console, copy the wfi image using wget/tftp/scp, i.e
scp user@192.168.1.100:~/openwrt/bin/targets/bmips/bcm63268/openwrt-bmips-bcm63268-actiontec_t1200h-squashfs-cfe.bin /tmp/
- Erase half the flash partition where openwrt will be installed with
flash_erase -j /dev/mtd1 0 491
- Flash the openwrt image with
nandwrite -p /dev/mtd1 /tmp/openwrt-bmips-bcm63268-actiontec_t1200h-squashfs-cfe.bin
- Reboot
- Interrupt the bootloader again and use the c command to boot from
previous firmware if vendor image is loaded

[Minor improvements to DTS file]

The CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV option is needed by CONFIG_DSA and some other
options. It is boolean, we have to compile it into the kernel it self.
Activate it for all targets in the generic configuration, it is already
activated for most of them. This allows to install DSA drivers as a
module.
On the ramips/mt7620 target the kernel would grown by 4.5kB.
For some small targets which do not support a DSA switch by default the
option is deactivated.

Now that JFFS2 cleanmarkers are supported on the standard nand_do_upgrade
function we can start using it on bmips.

Stop using bmips b43-sprom fixups and switch to generic bcma/ssb fallback
SPROMs. This way we don't need to include the b43-sprom fixups on devices
without Broadcom wireless.

BMIPS is a generic arch that can be used for multiple Broadcom SoCs, each one
with its own specific drivers, so instead of having a huge kernel supporting
all of them, let's switch to a subtarget per SoC like other OpenWrt targets.
