Hello IBR-DTN,
I am working with OpenWRT and the access point LINKSYS WRT54GL. In OpenWRT repositories have the option to backfire and kamikaze (x86 and ar71xx). But the model works with the Linksys WRT54GL (BRCM-2.4 and brcm47xx). The package-0.6.0.tar.gz-ibrdtn found at: http://www.ibr.cs.tu-bs.de/projects/ibr-dtn/releases/openwrt/. It can usually be downloaded and installed the Linksys WRT54GL, since this package has no binaries?
Greetings,
Hello Felipe,
1. Precompiled OpenWRT packages are only provided for the x86 targets and the Atheros 71xx MIPS core (because we use http://ubnt.com/rspro as our reference platfform) 2. Broadcom 47xx is also MIPS, but it is a MIPS4K core, while the Atheros71xx is a 24K core, therefore just using the binaries from the Atheros packages should not work 3. However, with a working OpenWRT toolchain it should be possible to compile IBR-DTN form the source package for the brcm47xx 4. I have my doubts whether the good old WRT54GL is a suitbale platform for IBR-DTN, although it will be interesting to see if it can work: Most of the GLs have only 16 MB of RAM, and OpenWRT will already gobble up a sizable amount of it. Further you would need to run IBR-DTN in memory storage mode which puts further presure on the RAM, because Flash is only 4MB (8 if you are lucky), so it will be challenge to even find space for the IBR-DTN binaries. (If you are adventurous you can try adding an SD Card to solve the flash problem, but this will not be fast, as the SPI interface is only emulated: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Linksys_WRT54G-TM_SD/MMC_mod)
Greetings
Sebastian

Hello Felipe.
The package you have found only contains the recipe to build IBR-DTN for OpenWRT with your own toolchain. Since there are no binaries, the package could not installed directly on any OpenWRT system.
If you like to build your own packages, you should use the latest version of the recipe which is located here (since today): http://www.ibr.cs.tu-bs.de/projects/ibr-dtn/releases/openwrt/package-ibrdtn-...
Kind regards, Johannes
