DD-WRT Build Firmware from Source

Hi

I am currently developing firmware from source for DD -WRT,  i am following this link and doing

http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=28348&postdays=0&postorder=...

Everything works fine except that ther is a error when i do make configure 

arun@ubuntu:~/DD-WRT/src/router$ sudo make configure
rules/iptables.mk:39: warning: overriding commands for target `iptables-clean'
rules/iptables.mk:2: warning: ignoring old commands for target `iptables-clean'

Though I have done

export MYPATH=$PATH;

export PATH=/opt/4.1.0/bin:$MYPATH;

make configure

I get mipsel-linux-uclibc-gcc: Command not found error.

 

Someone pls help....

Hi sunil,

Hi sunil,
Please check if u have installed the tool chain properly or not ...
If tool chain is installed properly or if u r not specifying the correct PATH then
this error will arise ....

Also have a look at the build scripts avlbl at :
http://www.myopenrouter.com/download/10865/Automation-Scripts-DD-WRT-Dow...

You can get some info from there or utilize them directly to compile DD-WRT ..
Keep us posted abt your proceedings ....

hi sunil ,

hi sunil ,
First I would suggest you to go through my build scripts and do exactly the same thing in same order ....
If after that u face any problem let me know ...
Also make sure that u use gcc version 3.3.6 for compiling Linux and 4.1.0 for other router packages ....
Linux must be compiled with 3.3.6 so include this in your PATH and let me know ..

Hi achilles,

Hi achilles,

I am using WRT54GL v1.1. Will those script hold good for this router as well?

The scripts r for compiling and creating a firmware .... Now for WGR614L the firmware is in .chk format and I dnt know which format WRT54GL requires .... u can use the scripts as far as compilation is concerned ... Rest shud be WRT54GL specific ....
