    Hi Oleg,

    upgraded from the previous release and it works great. Thank you for your effort!

    Is it possible to upgrade dnsmasq to the latest version? The version which is included doesn't have support for tagging based on mac addresses (usefull for openvpn clients).

    Allright...wrong question

    I've compiled dnsmasq myself, since the dnsmasq version at this location has IPv6 support compiled in, which results in a "Protocol not supported" error. Strange actually, but recompiling seemed easier yesterday
    By the way, I've also found out that mounting iso images to directories does not work right away. You have to manually create symlinks to the loop devices. I think it has something todo with devfs support (but I'm not sure). Anyway, you have to create symlinks from /dev/loop0 to /dev/loop/0 (and that for all 8 loop devices if you want to mount several images). Maybe you can fix the next version of the rom to include these symlinks?

    Right now, I've added the following lines to my post-boot script:
    Code:
    for l in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ; do
        ln -s /dev/loop/$l /dev/loop$l
    done
    which also works fine.

    Looks like a bug in busybox.

    Yes, I suppose. I've upgraded to BusyBox 1.8.1, but that didn't solve the problem. I've seen a bug report about this issue, but the resolution was something like: disable devfs in the kernel

    I'll try to recompile version 1.8.2 tonight and see if that makes any difference.

    Problems with rtorrent and firmware v1.9.2.7 CR8

    Trying to use rtorrent from opt-ware source, but after upgrading from 1.9.2.7-7g i get:

    Code:
    Storage error: [File chunk write error: Success.
    Trying to download torrent to vfat partition. And I'm using screen for being able to detach rtorrent. Using a wl500gx.

    Will downgrade now, but if anyone can think of whats causing this then I would be thank full.
