Here's my question:
I apologize for asking a question related to DD-WRT here, but as of now that is my only option to replace the Linksys 'Venom' Firmware.
The sysupgrade command does not successfully flash the 'factory to dd-wrt.bin' file.
So would mtd work?
I haven't tried this yet, but it looks promising. However, I have almost zero experience with LEDE / OpenWRT.
Use SCP to upload dd-wrt to /tmp
or
SSH into WRT32X
Change directory to temp: cd /tmp
Use wget command: wget https://download1.dd-wrt.com/dd-wrtv2/downloads/betas/2017/11-04-2017-r33679/linksys-wrt32x/factory-to-dd-wrt.bin
then:
mtd -r write factory-to-dd-wrt.bin linux
