hahah.. I bricked the Shield and had to recover it.. TFTP of a 100MB file takes... a long time.. (like.. an hour and 40 minutes worth of long time!)
But, it's working now, better than ever actually.. I'm making some real progress.. The "base" image is 17MB. This has network functionality (defaults to router, but can be configured for bridge by hand right now, if that is what someone wants), but nothing else. I'll probably make a separate device image for bridge at some point.
Now.. the question is, does anyone know who OWNS the itus.accessinnov.com domain? Would they be open to hosting the ipks and whatnot? I'm not even sure what the size for everything would be (i'll check), but if I have to start hosting it online, I'll have to see what I can do.
I've gotten to the point where I am looking for a place to hold the compiled images and .ipks. It looks like we are going to have to maintain our own repo for the packages because I compile with support for the Octeon III rather than just Octeon+ (-march=octeon3), so the OpenWrt official repo comes up as No Valid Architecture.
My goal is to make an actual base package people can do what they want with. From there, I can worry about pre-made packages (or just release a auto-configuration package that sets up things like Snort, Adblock, banip, etc)
