This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.
Please use "make menuconfig" to choose your preferred
configuration for the toolchain and firmware.
To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case
sensitive filesystem required) Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack
of a case sensitive file system.
You need to have installed gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make,
find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers.

Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to get all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default respectively
and "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks of all of them into
package/feeds/.
1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default
Use "make menuconfig" to configure your image.
2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained
packages into package/feeds/
Simply running "make" will build your firmware.
It will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain,
the kernel and all choosen applications.
