mediatek: mt7622: modernize Linksys E8450 / Belkin RT3200 UBI build
Move fip and factory into UBI static volumes. Use fitblk instead of partition parser. !! RUN INSTALLER FIRST !! Existing users of previous OpenWrt releases or snapshot builds will have to **re-run the updated installer** before upgrading to firmware after this commit. DO NOT flash or run even just the initramfs image unless you have run the updated installer which moves the content of the 'factory' partition into a UBI volume. tl;dr: DON'T USE YET!

Thank you. Can you please describe the steps to "upgrade" the bootloader of a device that already runs OpenWrt? I can see several warnings what not to do, but what are the safe steps to use the installer when OpenWrt already runs on an earlier version?

Hi @dangowrt
I followed your procedure and manage to upgrade to r25357-ef34f8f5b5. But it seems I'm now stuck on this version. I sysupgraded to r25396-3e6f64d443 successfully but after reboot, I'm still running r25357-ef34f8f5b5. Any idea why?
Thanks in advance.

My Belkin RT3200 is extremely unstable since a few days. It often does not boot. Unplugging the device and wait for 5 minutes sometimes helps. I can see that the USB port is active but the Power LED never turns on, the device seems to be completely dead. After a few tries, it boots without issues. Unfortunately, I do not have a serial connection to the device so I cannot see what's going on.
