   apk update && apk add kmod-mtd-rw
2. Unlock bootloader:
   insmod mtd-rw i_want_a_brick=1
   mtd unlock BL2
   mtd unlock FIP
3. Download and write open-source BL2 and FIP:
   cd /tmp
   wget https://.../openwrt-mediatek-filogic-routerich_be7200-preloader.bin
   wget https://.../openwrt-mediatek-filogic-routerich_be7200-bl31-uboot.fip
