Re: [Other] Own a FreeSwitch on a Seagate DockStar for $24.99 I have attached a newly built OpenWRT SVN firmware for a Seagate DockStar below. I have removed the 1st patch (to create a rootfs_data MTD partition) from here. This patch seemed to have cause the external USB partition mounted as RO. So, any further changes to the filesystem will only happen in the RAM space and won't sustain a reboot. The 2nd patch on the same link is for the LED. If you want your LED to blink when there is net activities, the follow the instructions here to configure the LED.
[UPDATE: 07/15/2010]: I just reloaded with a newly built OpenWRT SVN firmware for a Seagate DockStar device in two formats, i.e. a tarball file and an image file created using dd if=/dev/sda1 of=openwrt-kirkwood-rootfs.img bs=1M count=111 (then compressed).This firmware includes Apache server, Samba, and OpenWRT GUI. The LED can be configured through GUI, too. I also attached the config.kirkwood (for OpenWRT) and config-default (for Linux kernel) files in case you want to know what packages/applications and/or kernel modules are compiled into the kernel.
 openwrt-kirk···.tar.bz2 44770411 bytes
 openwrt-kirk···.img.bz2 95349751 bytes OpenWRT SVN firmware for DockStar in an image format
 config.kirkwood 19168 bytes .config file for OpenWRT (config.kirkwood.zip)
 config-default 1756 bytes config-default file for Linux kernel (config-default.zip) To use the above image firmware compressed file, it needs to be decompressed first. Once it is decompressed, use dd if=openwrt-kirkwood-rootfs.img of=/dev/sda1 bs=1M where /dev/sda1 is your external USB disc. If you go with this approach, there is no need to create a partition on a USB memory stick nor to format it. However, I don't know if this image will work (I haven't tested it, yet).
Below is some snapshots of the GUI menu pages on my Seagate DockStar device running with the above firmware.
