OpenWRT 0.9 / X-WRT 2.75

Last week I updated my WRTSL54GS to OpenWRT 0.9 with X-WRT 2.75.

Since my box has an USB port, I was missing a way to umount mounted usb storage. Looking deeper into it, I noticed that partitions get mounted by ‘/etc/hotplug.d/usb/01-mount’ like this:

# mount
[...]
part1 on /mnt/disc0_1 type ext3 (rw)
part2 on /mnt/disc0_2 type vfat (rw)

The correct devices are missing. A patch is available:

mount.patch

Okay … So far, so good. Now some tweaking to webif^2 for umounting attached usb storage devices. Here comes the patch:

umount-button.patch

We got some Linksys WRTSL54GS imported from US

Linksys WRTSL54GS

Don´t ask how, but we got some units to europe.

The first thing we does, was to install openwrt and to try debridge the switch to have multiple interfaces instead. We was able to remove ports from the switch, but cant create additional working vlans like on WRT54G. So at this point its useless for our purpose. But we will start exploring as son as possible we have a running serial console.
