Hey - first off, wanted to say thanks to the devs for finally making a 64k CFE / NVRAM DD-WRT build available. I followed the procedure to update my CFE to version 1.0.1.3 and successfully flashed Fractal's mega build from the link above.
Unfortunately, the LAN ports don't seem to work (LED is on, but can't access the web interface even with a static IP). Also, the reset button doesn't seem to work either. Is there an easy fix for these issues?
The Optware Oleg repo already has an iperf build, might be simpler for you to get it from there.
Code:
admin@RT-AC66U:/tmp/home/root# ipkg list | grep iperf
iperf - 2.0.4-1 - A tool for measuring TCP and UDP bandwidth performance.
I think I may have already mentioned on this thread that the binary does not work? It fires up and then just sits there. Same with a number of others binaries from them. Even my own compiled binaries that worked on previous routers don't work on this one. No error messages, just sits there and does nothing.

Did you clear nvram values with wps button pressed while turning on?

Might be missing some depdencies. Try:
Code:
ldd iperf
See if it shows any missing library. (assuming DD-WRT ships with ldd)

Well, that totally fixed it. Figures, the one thing I didn't try ...

I have some test code I've compiled which uses serial(ftdi) and is currently seg faulting specifically on the open() function. The usb to serial port shows up correctly in DDWRT. Do I need to recompile against a new/different toolchain with this new 64k build?
To figure out where the issue lies, we might need fractal's .map file for when he created the firmware. Once we get that, we can figure out what is happening.
Join us in ##dd-wrt on freenode to help us out if you are interested in fixing the issue. I am thinking about updating the ticket as it isn't solely happening on ext drives, but happening on fat/ntfs as well, if you throw enough data at it.

I have read this whole post. I have also gone to the wiki page for the N66U. For the most part I understand all the items addressed but what is not clear to me after getting to the end of the thread on exactly what the steps are/should be to load dd-wrt onto my N66U.
In the wiki it states that I will need to load a .trx file and then a .bin. But when I go to the downloads there are only two .trx files. One called mini and one BIG. I see there are items addressing the CFE but again its not clear to me if i need to execute those steps or just load one (or both) of the .trx files. And then... is there a bin? All other dd-wrt firmware loads have always been a .bin. As an FYI I am running ASUS firmware vs 3.0.0.4.246
Sorry for confusion and any help in a list of steps and the order they need to be executed is greatly appreciated.

Monday is fine. I am in no rush. I just purchased the router and can wait and I certainly don't want to brick it. The CFE part is what confuses me the most. Enjoy the weekend and I look forward to your reply!
Is there any way that you could include debugging symbols, or as I mentioned in the PM to you, include the vmlinuz.map file that you are building the firmware with?
