Wrong forum...

Download the OpenWRT source.
Go into the source directory
Run 'make menuconfig'
Select Intel IXP4xx as the CPU
Leave everything above 'Base system' at default.
Exit and save configuration
Run 'make package/symlinks' (this will download all available libraries for the ixp4xx)
Run 'make menuconfig' again
Select anything you want (Utilities/libraries/Extra packages/Busybox, etc...)
Exit and save configuration
Run 'make V=99' and grab yourself something to drink -- this will take a while.

Once that is done, you'll have images in bin/ and all the packages in bin/packages/target-blauClibcblabla/
You care about bin/openwrt-avila-zImage and bin/openwrt-ixp4xx-squashfs.img
First one is your kernel, second your filesystem.
Make sure you have tftp server running on your machine and put the two images into your tftp directory (most likely /var/lib/tftpboot, but check in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp)
Then, after making sure your firewall allows udp port 69 (tftp), follow the procedure outlined here: http://oldwiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs% … 348_4.html

That's it...
Have fun and good luck!
