How do I fix it?  I think I have an idea, OpenWrt FAQ said I need libc headers, but I can not find the package for it (i am using ubuntu)

Thanks!

Try this http://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=8410. Make sure you have all required package installed.

You can also disable building the useless GDB. See post #3.

(Last edited by forum2006 on 28 Dec 2006, 20:08)

I got all the packages, the error is still there.
I do not understand how to disable GDB, what do I do with that code?

I'm using the Ubuntu VMware image and everything works fine.

Maybe do a fresh check out from subversion and do a clean build again.

WOW it worked!  My image is 1.3MB!  How small does it have to be to fit in the 5461's 2MB?  Doesn't it reserve some of it for bootloader and stuff?
I need USB mass storage and telnet, thats all, I dont care for any routing features.

What image do I use for my 5461?  openwrt-brcm-2.4-squashfs.trx?

(Last edited by schweitzer on 28 Dec 2006, 22:38)

Well. I would use the ImageBuilder remove a few packages which are not really required and flash it.

You have to select the ImageBuilder in menuconfig under packages (at the end of the list) run 'make clean world' to build the ImageBuilder. The ImageBuilder tarball will be created in ~/whiterussian/bin/ directory.

After unpacking the ImageBuilder tarball remove the following packages from lists/default.brcm-2.4 and run 'make' in the ImageBuilder directory.

To build a image without webif GUI remove the following packages:
  haserl, webif

To build a image without iptables and ppp remove the following packages:
  iptables, kmod-ipt-nat-default, kmod-ppp, ppp-mod-pppoe, ppp, ppp-mod-pppoe

To build a image without wireless remove the following packages:
  iwlib, kmod-brcm-wl, kmod-wlcompat, wificonf, wireless-tools

Ok, so I can strip it down more, that is great!  But which image do I have to use to flash my router?
Also, according to the wiki page for the 5461 ( http://wiki.openwrt.org/USR5461 ) I have to apply a patch, but the patch is for Kamikaze.  Would it work for WhiteRussian?
Also, how do you get all the text that is output (like on the wiki page for the 5461)

What will happen if the flash fails?  Is my router bricked?  How do I know if it fails?

Also, what is faster, Ubuntu under VMWare on this computer (Core 2 Duo E6600, 2GB RAM) or natively on this computer (1.6GHz P4, 512MB RAM)

(Last edited by schweitzer on 28 Dec 2006, 22:59)

The patch apply to WhiteRussian well. Just copy it to ~/whiterussian/target/linux/linux-2.4/patches/brcm and run 'make clean world' and you included the patch in WR.

cd ~/whiterussian/target/linux/linux-2.4/patches/brcm
wget --no-check-certificate -O 010-bcm47xx-cam_absent.patch "https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/target/linux/brcm-2.4/patches/010-bcm47xx-cam_absent.patch?format=txt"
cd ~/whiterussian
make clean world

But no guarantee on this.

(Last edited by forum2006 on 28 Dec 2006, 23:33)

Ok, I put it there and it is building.  Once built, I will extract the imagebuilder, remove the stuff I do not want from lists, and then make it.  Then what image must I upload to my router?
Also, what will its IP and username and password be so that I may SSH in (dropbear)

(Last edited by schweitzer on 28 Dec 2006, 23:40)

Good You also have to backport this patch to WR. Maybe I'll do it tomorrow.

From the wiki:

The last IP you configured the router to. No default password. Use telnet the first time and set a password than use SSH.

Everything else is in the wiki.

(Last edited by forum2006 on 28 Dec 2006, 23:47)

It Works!  I Telnet In!  Woohooo!
AMMMAAZING!

Now, how do I set the DNS and gateway info for the router?  I need that to use ipkg for USB Mass Storage!

(Last edited by schweitzer on 29 Dec 2006, 00:27)

Alright, I've finished backporting the patch to add U.S. Robotics USR5461 support to WhiteRussian.

It creates a .bin file which can be flashed with the original USR5461 web interface (watch the size difference of the two images. It's exactly the 28 bytes for the header, added by the trx2usr tool):

ll ~/whiterussian/bin/
-rw-r--r-- 1 ubuntu ubuntu 1548288 2006-12-29 00:59 openwrt-brcm-2.4-squashfs.trx
-rw-r--r-- 1 ubuntu ubuntu 1548316 2006-12-29 00:59 openwrt-usr5461-squashfs.bin

I'll clean up my patches and post them here later...

Maybe I'll also create a special packages list (based on ImageBuilder's default list) for the 2MB flash. I know, there is already a micro, but the micro is not very usefull.

(Last edited by forum2006 on 29 Dec 2006, 01:12)

Try kmod-usb-ohci instead of kmod-usb-uhci.

should I remove uhci?

yes, replace it. rebuild the image with the imagebuilder and reflash it.

if you look into the nice log in the wiki you see this:

YES IT DETECTED IT!  I put UHCI because that is what UsbStorageHowto told me to put

Thanks though, you are a great help!

Great

No problem. You are welcome.

Normally it should be auto-mounted by the hotplug scripts.

Make sure you have partitioned and formatted it correctly.

You, also need the right package for the filesystem e.g. kmod-vfat or kmod-ext2 installed/included in the image...

(Last edited by forum2006 on 29 Dec 2006, 01:43)

I see... I installed vfat, and I tried the drive formatted both fat and fat32, same thing.  I need this drive to read in both a Windows PC and this router...  Is vfat not for fat or fat32?

How do I configure the DNS and gateway info for my router?

(Last edited by schweitzer on 29 Dec 2006, 01:52)

Hmm, you'll probably need kmod-vfat and kmod-msdos.

kmod-msdos has been added lately to the WR buildroot. Check if you have it in ~/whiterussian/bin/packages/

After installing (rebuild and reflash the image with the ImageBuilder. If you use the ImageBuilder all the packages go into the SquashFS partition which has higher compression and saves you some space) these two packages and rebooting show me 'lsmod' and 'df -h' output.

This is in the FAQ

SWEET you just taught me how to check how much space I have open!  Thanks!

So, your stick is still not mounted but the modules are loaded correctly.

I guess it has something to do with the stick now. Maybe try another stick and try to format the stick with FAT and FAT32 from Windows.

Sorry, I'm out of ideas.

(Last edited by forum2006 on 29 Dec 2006, 02:06)

Damnit, it is!  I tried a small SD i had (32MB) in a card reader, and it works.  That is weired that the stick works everywhere I have tried but in OpenWrt
