you can only set password after you set boot device (hdd or usb)
I have succesfully flashed latest (openwrt-brcm-2.4-squashfs.trx) Open-WRT firmware. After reboot my first thing was changing root password, I release passwd command, but I got an error message.
root@OpenWrt:/# passwd
Changing password for root
Enter the new password (minimum of 5 characters)
Please use a combination of upper and lower case lette
Enter new password:
Re-enter new password:
passwd: An error occurred updating the password file.
Any idea?
While I am not able to change root password I can not reach any other functions/settings on OpenWrt Administrative Console.
you can only set password after you set boot device (hdd or usb)
And how can I do that?
I also found this link, but I forgot an important thing: I do not have fdisk command (I do not know why)!
After I telnet to router and I list available command of Open-WRT Busybox (release help command), I cannot find fdisk! I guess it cannot be normal...
Have you got any idea how I can reach fdisk command?
because you did not followed that tutorial closely, use the firmware tutorial says
Sorry, I do not understand what you think about. What step could I omit?
I did not find any other step here: http://www.macsat.com/macsat/content/view/62/30/
even here (according to your suggestion):
http://wl700g.homelinux.net/portal/content/view/31/30/
flash with
http://wl700g.homelinux.net/drupal/?...am7.09V2_1.trx
http://wl700g.homelinux.net/portal/content/view/29/30/
(first step from tutorial)
I flashed firmware v2.1 as you suggested. After I reset the router I am able to ping that (and it answers), however I cannot enter to router via telnet.
So I return to openwrt-brcm-2.4-squashfs.trx, because at least its telnet is working.
I would like to ask you to tell me clearly what concrete activity do you think when say first step from tutorial (maybe resetting the router).

this is the tutorial that works for me
http://wl700g.homelinux.net/portal/c...egory/5/16/30/
use static ip in the begining 192.168.1.2 on the pc
telnet should work
Unfortunatelly, there is no success: I set 192.168.1.2 IP address for my notebook, then I telnet to router, but error message was the same.
I have been trying to find solution and I found a suspicious thing after I released dmesg command.
mini_fo: create_sto_dir: ERROR creating sto dir.
mini_fo: build_sto_structure: failed to create storage dir [1].
mini_fo: get_neg_sto_dentry: ERROR building sto structure.
mini_fo: nondir_unmod_to_mod: ERROR getting neg. sto dentry.
mini_fo_open: ERROR creating storage file.
I released df command and I could see free space is ran out:
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 896 896 0 100% /rom
none 31460 24 31436 0% /tmp
/dev/mtdblock/4 320 320 0 100% /jffs
/jffs 896 896 0 100% /
Can anybody how I can get more free space?
Hy guys <>
I haven't been around for a while....
After testing i found out that my first firmware is stabler than the v2
http://wl700g.homelinux.net/drupal/files/kam7.09.trx
with this image you should run the /sbin/root2x.sh command after that you should have plenty of free space on the box about 160 GB or 250 Gb
there's is no way you can free up space on this box wothout doing this
its only a 2mb flash and the image is 1,8 mb
my box runs this image for a couple of months very smooth
currently I'm trying to develop a new image that gets rid of the problems when the box has been powered out for a couple of hours

Aaahh, yeaah! Many thanx for you!
/sbin/root2x.sh script was the key. I have successfully installed your firmware so far... ipkg packages will be followed.
But I stucked, I cannot install packages, because it seems my router cannot connect to Internet.

what is the output of ' ifconfig '
Do you see a wan ip in there
how are you connected to the internet example:
My Setup :
Internet - aDSL Modem - Router
Wan(96.*.*.*) - 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.2.1
When you provider is a adsl provider there is probably already a router in you modem and you need to set the asus to listen to 192.168.2.1
you can configure this setting in the /etc/config/network - now it is 192.168.1.1
