Keep getting error when trying to write:


root@DD-WRT:~# md5sum dd-wrt_x64_public_vga.image
d9104059b541299e19d3063df0a7c252 dd-wrt_x64_public_vga.image
root@DD-WRT:~# write dd-wrt_x64_public_vga.image linux
flash : dd-wrt_x64_public_vga.image: Bad trx header


I see someone in atheros build is having similar problem.

write cannot be used for x86 images. use webflash or the .image file using dd to your physical drive. write is made for flash based devices and has a different firmware format. you may also use "writetool" to write a .image file to the current boot drive

You are right. And I also noticed that I was not using the webupgrade version. So two dumb things on my side, but I did get it updated:
