Hi guys,
I am trying to manage to install optware on Linksys E4200. I am using USB memory stick 8GB, here is my mount:
Code:
root@Linksys E4200:~# mount
rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
/dev/root on / type squashfs (ro)
none on /dev type devfs (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
ramfs on /tmp type ramfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw)
devpts on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
/dev/mtdblock/4 on /jffs type jffs2 (rw)
/dev/discs/disc0/part1 on /opt type ext2 (rw,noatime)
/dev/discs/disc0/part3 on /tmp/mnt type ext2 (rw,noatime)
(I got problem with double mounting on /opt but I solve it). I tried both links:
Configuring xinetd
Warning: the current only_from configuration in /opt/etc/xinetd.conf is
only_from = localhost 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12 192.168.0.0/16
change to your subnet accordingly and tighten security!
when I check using 'top' I see '/opt/bin/killall xinetd' is taking all CPU. When I kill it, it continues, but later 'pidof' is taking all CPU.
So, I am unable to install optware, please help. Some more info:

do what it says and try changing the only_from to your subnet in xinetd.conf - it seems to not like that the config file permits connections from so many different subnets _________________ TP-Link TL-WR1043ND - DD-WRT std BS build 20675

should probably be 192.168.1.0/24, and remove the 10.x and 172.x
if it is still complaining, remove all but localhost for now, and add 192.168.1.0/24 later.
unless it just overwrites the config file each time you install optware, then any changes you make are moot. every time i reinstall a package with optware though, it asks me to keep or replace my current config file. _________________ TP-Link TL-WR1043ND - DD-WRT std BS build 20675

interesting... where is the build check located and why isnt that throwing him an error? or do you mean he took the build check out of the install script to continue? _________________ TP-Link TL-WR1043ND - DD-WRT std BS build 20675

thanks for reply, I am really new into dd-wrt, I didnt edit any check, I just do as wiki said:
wget the script and sh the script, no edit in meantime.
Anyway, as I can see, I can not use any build (I really didnt know about that), so please, which fw is good (I would pick up mega, or at least std_usb_nas), for now I am deciding between these:

He has taken it out the check or edited the lastsupported build.

Curiously I'm also doing my first ever DD-WRT install on a fresh Asus RT-N66U and I hit the same thing in the same spot. /opt/bin/killall xinetd goes to 100% CPU in top and never completes. If I kill it, it switches over to a pidof command going to 100%.
I'm on a recent BS build: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (05/12/13) big - build 21592, but I got what I think was a variant of this as well with Fractal Build 21402 from ftp://ftp.basmaf.com/Fractal_Builds/.

Read my first post in the otrw2 thread.
especially the red part
I am having the exact same problems with the optware install script available at: http://wd.mirmana.com/prep_optware ). I am following Optware-The right way guide.
Basically during optware install, both "killall" and "pidof" commands are hanging and using all the CPU.
killing these processes makes the optware install script to progress, but it would hang again when it encounters the next killall or pidof.
Any other suggestions? I have a e4200, flashed with mega svn 21286 (4/15/13).
