-====== ChangeLog ======
+This needs reorganized. Maybe dates and openwrt svn revisions... ugh
-== neutronscott tight (20100912 build 41) ==
+====== OpenWRT devel build 5 =====
-  * more secure by default. iptables script builds firewall.
+  * Fix wifi again. build4 didn't send beacons. I must have not incorporated all the right parts of Helmut's patch, or rt2x00-git is much different than compat-wireless-2011-01-06, or the rt61pci doesn't fetch beacons periodically. So now it fetches them, and it's handled in the irq, since this is what caused CPU to be eaten by handling it in thread or even tasklet... hrm!!!
-  * bridges called br-lan and br-wan so any changes (AP mode -> client mode) shouldn't affect other scripts or iptables
-  * even more jffs -- less modules/libraries. system should have only enough to boot and get online to customize.
-  * small ipkg repository up @ http://wrt.scottn.us/ipkg/ -- installs to /tmp by default, edit /etc/ipkg.conf if you're trustworthy type :)
-  * the beginnings of a webpanel, written in ash!
-  * preinit checks for jffs magic number at first block of /dev/mtd2. thus, during this upgrade it will reformat to gain space.
-  * /etc/init.d/network now understands 'stop' 'start' and 'restart', moved ntp to own startup script -- needed for webpanel.
-  * dnsmasq script edited to use webpanel settings.
-== neutronscott tight (20100910 build 18) ==
-  * replaced busybox's internal depmod/modprobe since they didn't support 2.4 kernels.
-  * led now blinks fast orange/green if reformatting jffs during boot, and fast green when starting dropbear.
-== neutronscott tight (20100909 build 15) ==
+====== OpenWRT devel build 4 =====
-  * Network failsafe works. I stupidly had an 'ifconfig adm1 down' in there before (wtf?)
+  * Started with a fresh checkout of openwrt trunk r24978.
-  * Network failsafe only checks for the existence of IP 10.3.0.2 on LAN! No need to open a TCP port. :)
+  * Hopefully fixed wifi issues. Helmut Schaa made the patches against git-tree, I applied them manually to the compat-wireless in trunk.
-  * my rootfs build script now updates /etc/firmware_version /etc/motd and /etc/issue
+  * Ported my MTD map from backfire: the kernel+rootfs image is split on first boot to speedup future boots, and jffs2 is formatted on firstboot like it should be.
-  * Modified kernel. Made SES LED and SES+RESET buttons available under /proc/adm8668/
-  * Made /usr/sbin/led.sh real quick to play with it. You can make the button poll script :)
-== neutronscott tight revision duex ==
+====== OpenWRT devel build 3 =====
-Release: 8/sept/2010
+  * Upgraded to Linux 2.6.36!
-  * Oops, some USB things weren't modular.
+  * LZMA loader totally faster. RAM->RAM expansion now, the super slow lzma read() callback for FLASH is gone (thus can boot it with TFTP/serial)! Also passes boot arguments to kernel.
-  * uClibc now compiled with RPC support. Fixed NFS mounts.
+  * kernel reads cmdline from bootloader. Also memory size.
-  * httpd compiled without sendfile syscall. No longer Oops's kernel while using mini_fo.
+  * Re-worked ethernet driver to use platform_device instead of pci_device. Now the source is very small and customized to our chip, and I will eventually have an easier time adding switch/phy driver. (maybe performance improvement too since less code...)
-  * removed: usb_modeswitch, tcpdump, libstdc++, libpcap, libusb, libpthread, librt
-  * /usr/lib/ipkg/lists links to /tmp, such a waste of jffs space.
-  * /dev/log links to /tmp/syslog.sock, such a waste of writes to flash.
-  * /jffs links to /oldroot/.jffs (why double-mount?)
-  * syslogd/klogd commented out in inittab. waste of ram.
-  * defaults to AP mode instead of client. I want use it as a client myself, but I mean, ... it is a router. :)
-  * httpd off by default. it didn't serve anything worthwhile. (i use it as a status/control for my 3G modem)
-  * some preinit buggies with formatting jffs while it is already mounted...
-== neutronscott tight ==
-  * built most of the kernel as modules.
-  * maximized mtd partitions for jffs space.
-== neutronscott naked ==
+====== OpenWRT devel build 2 =====
-  * initial release.
+  * Fixed same bug I originally had in backfire's NOR map. Squashfs detection. Virgin routers found the recovery squashfs, and that squashed the partition table :(
+  * Disabled Wifi LEDs to see if it improved performance :(
+====== OpenWRT devel build 1 =====
+  * Initial release based on kernel 2.6.35.7.
