While the disadvantage is less available flash space, it's easy and safe to flash without opening the device. Going back to the original firmware is also possible. This patch add two firmware utilities, mkbrncmdline and mkbrnboot. mkbrncmdline patches the uncompressed kernel so the registeres a0 to a3 are initialized and the memory size is passed in. mkbrnboot takes the lzma compressed kernel and squashfs images and creates a firmware image that can be flashed using the BRN-BOOT recovery kernel, which is booted by holding both buttons when powering up the device and will listen on http://192.168.2.1. The firmware file from bin/lantiq/ to use is openwrt-lantiq-danube-ARV4525PW-BRNDTW502-brnImage The BRN-BOOT recovery kernel does size-check the image, so if it's too big to fit into flash it will complain accordingly. A second patch is needed to make the wired network interface work since there is no u-boot to pre-initialise it.

README
This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution. Please use "make menuconfig" to configure your appreciated configuration for the toolchain and firmware. You need to have installed gcc, binutils, patch, bzip2, flex, make, gettext, pkg-config, unzip, libz-dev and libc headers. Run "./scripts/feeds update" to get the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default respectively and "./scripts/feeds install" to install symlinks into "package/feeds/*". Use "make menuconfig" to configure your image. Simply running "make" will build your firmware. It will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain, the kernel and all choosen applications. You can use "scripts/flashing/flash.sh" for remotely updating your embedded system via tftp. The OpenWrt system is documented in docs/. You will need a LaTeX distribution and the tex4ht package to build the documentation. Type "make -C docs/" to build it. To build your own firmware you need to have access to a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case-sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin will not be supported because of the lack of case sensitiveness in the file system. Sunshine! Your OpenWrt Project http://openwrt.org
