If you would like to build your own version of DD-WRT for Netgear's R7000 Router here are the basic steps.

Prerequisites

• A 32-bit Linux machine (I use Fedora 14)
• DD-WRT source code of R7000 Download Size:760578127 bytes (725.34MB)
• Toolchain to compile DD-WRT source code (Use the same toolchain that is used for compiling the stock source code).
• Compilation should be done as root user.

Steps

1. Create a directory path for toolchain.

• mkdir -p /projects/hnd/tools/linux/

2. Copy toolchain to that directory.

• cp hndtools-arm-linux-2.6.36-uclibc-4.5.3.tar.bz2 /projects/hnd/tools/linux/

3. Decompress toolchain.

• cd /projects/hnd/tools/linux/
• tar -jxvf hndtools-arm-linux-2.6.36-uclibc-4.5.3.tar.bz2

4. Comment out the definition

• "typedef float float_t;" in the file "hndtools-arm-linux-2.6.36-uclibc-4.5.3/arm-brcm-linux-uclibcgnueabi/sysroot/usr/include/bits/mathdef.h"

5. Export toolchain path.

• export PATH=/projects/hnd/tools/linux/hndtools-arm-linux-2.6.36-uclibc-4.5.3/bin/:$PATH

6. Decompress DD-WRT source code.

• tar -zxvf dd-wrt_R7000_2-Sep-2013.tgz

7. Select configuration file.

• cd dd-wrt/src/router
• cp .config_R7000 .config

8. Compile the source code.

• make -f Makefile.brcm_arm configure clean all install

On successful compilation, DD-WRT firmware of Negear R7000 will be created.

• Filename: "dd-wrt.v24-K26_R7000.chk"
• Path: "dd-wrt/src/router/arm-uclib
