The first re-install wouldn't go. I removed and reinstalled and it still doesn't show under top.

I'm on "dd-wrt.v24-11028_NEWD_mini_usb". I got swapon working last night using busy box, but SWAT is still eluding me and I can't access the drive in XP.
-Update-
Ok, still no SWAT but I've managed to cobble together the settings to allow me to access and read from the attached usb drive. I've even managed to install and configure uShare and have streamed files to my ps3. Now I just have to figure out the issue with writing to the share. I can't seem to get a "chmod 777" to stick on the "/mnt" directory, I think that may be part of the problem.

Well, always been a fan of the CLI anyways. So kudos for figuring the config file. Really not that hard one you get a hang of it. As far as writing to the drive. The only way I could do that is issue a "chmod a+rw /mnt". Never had an issue since. _________________ WRT-350N v1.0; 128MB RAM, WPC600N, Dual USB, Mini+USB+FTP NEWD, CPU@330Mhz, Terk WF-R x3, Serial, external jtag, and working on SD Mod.

I just managed to get it to work based on a post on an Ubuntu forum. I think there may be some superfluous lines here but I dare not change anything now that it's working.
Code:
#!/bin/sh

while [ $num -lt 10 ]; do
if [ -e /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0 ]; then

Draconis2941, How big is your /mnt partition? Are you unplugging it from the router and plugging it back into a windows machine? If not, please consider using an Ext3 Partition. This might be why your permissions are not setting. Also, are you sharing the entire /mnt folder? Or a folder inside of that one? I think permissions go out the windows on reboot for root directories, since the permissions have to be saved in the RAM. If you are sharing a folder inside of /mnt (ie /mnt/share), the file permissions will stick since it is not on a read-only filesystem. IMO, if it works, leave it alone.
bzzbr, Sorry to hear that you had to go back to the stock firmware. _________________ WRT-350N v1.0; 128MB RAM, WPC600N, Dual USB, Mini+USB+FTP NEWD, CPU@330Mhz, Terk WF-R x3, Serial, external jtag, and working on SD Mod. Running Samba3, Lighttpd, and some Python apps.

With the revised boot script I posted above the permission does stick, and everything seems to be working (except SWAT, but oh well I took care of it by hand). I’ve made a few other modifications to the other scripts as well to accomodate my slightly different partitions. All of the optware and other stuff is running on the ext partition. I've reserverd the Fat32 to just hold files. Here’s how I’ve partitioned my drive:
Part 1: Fat32
Part 2: Ext3
Part 3: linux swap
I do have a reason for sticking with FAT despite its limitations. I’m planning on loading HD video content and 802.11g is not always sufficient bandwidth to stream it. In those cases I want to be able to take the drive and plug it directly into my PS3, which cannot read Ext3 and looks straight to the first partition.
Right now everything is running on a 1Gb flash drive as a test. I’m planning on purchasing a 1Tb drive later to actually host everything. Once everything is working on the flash I plan on partitioning the HDD in a similar manner and then copying over the ext partition from the flash drive.
Now I’m looking for a way to stream the content on the internet, like the one in Tversity if you’re familiar with it.
I just flashed my 350n v1 with the dd-wrt V24 listed below. I am wanting to use the capabilities to use , USB printer, USB drives,USB Flash drives , etc.
right now I have been trying to setup a 140gb powered USB drive. I am running XP Pro but I do not have any idea about how to format the drive properly can anyone help in this please? _________________ 1x Westell 9100EM15 Rev.B Ver.1.02.00.04,
