Did you read the wiki to understand more about openwrt ?  ordinary openwrt does not come with any webui.
And, you should read this http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/luci.essentials

Install Luci, just -> ... install luci
not just admin-full not luci-fastindex......it is wrong.
read the wiki.

johan666, i installed luci with this manual http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/luci.essentials
