-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hello folks

I have chosen my school project, I will write step by step guide howto install netbsd on linksys router. But I have some questions.

Informations about my router:

Linksys wrt54GL v1.1

Bootloader     : CFE version 1.0.37 for BCM947XX (32bit,SP,LE)
System-On-Chip : Broadcom 5352EKPB
CPU Speed      : 200 MHz
Flash size     : 4 MB (Intel TE28F320 or Samsung)
RAM            : 16 MB (Hynix HY5DU281622ET)
Wireless       : Integrated Broadcom BCM2050KML
Switch         : Built-in
USB            : None
Serial         : yes (JP2)
JTAG           : assumed on JP1

The WRT54GL v1.1 uses a Broadcom 5352 CPU with integrated switch.



Questions?

1) Do you have some hints how to build and boot netbsd for this platform

  build.sh -m {mipsco|evbmips} tools

  build.sh -m {mipsco|evbmips} distribution

build.sh -m {mipsco|evbmips} kernel=GENERIC i can customize own kernel later.

I have to create own kernel wi md device and embed it with own small filesystem.

2) Any hints how to get network run ? Do we or FreeBSD,OpenBSD have drivers for that switch ? And what about wifi it is Integrated Broadcom BCM2050KML. It would be good to have network running :D without it I don't see any point why flas netbsd to this router :D except you want NetBSD paperweight.
