K1MAX with CFS-C support please.

[B7AST3R]

I have been trying for hours and I have managed to get moonraker installed but I am not equiped for this level of coding. fully relying on gemini for everything and gemini is not quite there. I'm sure it's a small tweak to the existing scripts but I dont know enough to get it done sadly. please and thank you

The new K1/C/Max CFS-C firmware seems to be very different from the older K1/K1C firmware that the Helper Script expects.

Main differences I found:

1. The root filesystem / is a RAM rootfs. Anything edited in /etc, /opt, /usr/bin, /etc/init.d, etc. disappears after reboot.

2. The only writable persistent area is:

/usr/data

3. The app/services partition is mounted read-only:

/dev/mmcblk0p8 -> /usr/deplibs squashfs ro

4. Creality services are started from:

/etc/appetc/init.d

but that path resolves to the read-only squashfs:

/etc/appetc -> /usr/apps/etc -> /usr/deplibs/apps/etc

So you cannot simply drop new init scripts there.

5. /opt does not persist. If you symlink:

/opt -> /usr/data/opt

it works until reboot, then resets.

6. git is not included by default, so the normal Helper Script install path fails. We had to install Entware/opkg into /usr/data/opt.

7. There is already a Moonraker-like service called nexusp running on port 7125

It responds to Moonraker-style endpoints like:

http://printer-ip:7125/server/info
http://printer-ip:7125/printer/info

So this firmware may not need a normal Moonraker install. It already has Creality’s replacement/compatibility layer. At least for Fluidd it seems to suffice.

8. The main reason the Helper Script does not work cleanly is that it assumes a more normal persistent Linux layout where it can install services, symlinks, packages, and web UI components into paths that survive reboot. On CFS-C firmware, most of those locations are volatile or read-only. Also there are couple of Creality scripts that are no longer compatible with the script that prevent it from running.

The workaround I'm currently testing was to patch the active squashfs app partition once and add a small boot hook that calls a new script on boot.

Then all future custom services could live in /usr/data. But that is much more invasive than the normal Helper Script.

So far I've installed successfully moonraker, mainsail. And I'm in the process of patching the start macro to support KAMP, but it involves byte patching the Klipper installation.

Tbh, if you are not familiar with Linux, I suggest you wait until someone streamlines the install process.

I used to use Linux back when RH5 and RH6 were new. I have history with it but not a full understanding of current Linux, a lot has changed over 20 years, lol. That being said you sound like you have made it further than I have, I was hung up on getting pillow installed because of ram constraints the GCC kept going OOM and failing. Which was preventing Moonraker from launching. The humorous thing is I'm doing all this because I need to be able to see the bed mesh so I can level the damn bed. Such a fundamental action on a 3d printer and it's been made unavailable for some reason. I was able to point the /opt/ to /usr/data/opt to get around the read only aspect of /opt on current firmware. I believe that was allowing for persistence through power cycling I hope that helps you. "ln -sf /usr/data/opt /opt"

For Moonraker, you can use the moonraker.tar.gz from the helper script, it should include the necessary libraries/dependencies.

As for persistence, I could not find any hook to make the symlink persist across reboots. I had to dump the current mmc partition, unquash the partition, add a custom init script, squash the partition and the dd the image to the partition.
