Anyone made the transition from the openwrt.org third-party firmware
to DD-WRT? It's not clear to me the best way to go about it.
Anyone happen to know?
Openwrt does have a "firmware upgrade" screen in its web GUI, however,
no docs really state what format of file it wants there and whether
you could really feed it, say the factory default .bin from linksys
and expect it to work.
I do have tftp functionality available to me, but I'm not sure if
that'll do the right thing to overwrite all of the openwrt-ness.
Openwrt does include a wget binary that i could bring the binary down
the dd-wrt.bin file down into. But openwrt lacks the "write" command
to do
dd-wrt# write /tmp/dd-wrt.v2*_generic.bin linux
as instructed in
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php...h_Command_Line
Hoewver, openwrt does have what appears to be a similar command:
openwrt# mtd -r write firmware.trx linux
mentioned here
http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/...5bccfc64a987dd
But the different file extensions and openwrt's use of squashfs and
jffs2 make me highly doubtful mtd -r write is the exact same as
dd-wrt's write command. But who knows...
Any insight would be welcome. I'll be checking the respective forums
for these products in the mean time.
