I will try to improve the fla= shing instructions but to clarify here:

the 'FACTORY' images= are are for installing when you have factory firmware installed. Usually, = but *not always*, you can install that via the factory web interface, but a= lways, you can install via a tftp update.

The 'SYSUPGRADE' images are for when you have a prior version o= f openwrt, cerowrt, dd-wrt, etc, already installed.

JFFS2 vs squashf= s is a matter of personal choice. If you plan to do lots of development or = coding on the router, go with jffs2. Otherwise squashfs saves space.

I'm really delighted to see people trying cerowrt out (and all on a= day while I was offline!). I look forward to any feedback you might have. = (bugs, features on the wiki please)

but: I have to note that althoug= h rc7-smoketest8 is proving out pretty good... it's what I call a '= smoketest', not even a release candidate. I try to come out with smoket= ests once a week, and my hope was to get rc7 itself out in ~2 weeks...

but as we're lagging=A0 the kernel development cycle by a little bi= t too much (and some core trees are only just now coming online again) I= 9;m going to slip a whole bunch of stuff out of rc7's roadmap.

What I've been burning mental cycles on - is that now that I'm rela= tively happy with the wireless performance and overall stability/features -= is trying to improve the gateway AQM system to suck a little less.

Anyway, don't expect miracles from cero yet! Bloated queues move to= your laptop, and upstream links - which are also bad places for them! - fi= xing your laptop is relatively easy - upstream link harder - you have to fi= x bloat everywhere you can.

I'm up! =A0Thanks, Max!

I was unable to load the CeroWRT code from the OpenWRT GUI, but was
able to reset the router then TFTP the image in.
