Topic: OpenWRT on Linksys BEFSX41

Hi,

I've got an old Linksys BEFSX41 v2 at home and I have no actual use for it so I thought I'd play with it a little.
I'd like to get OpenWRT running on it. I've read a little about it and I think the only other system that would work on it is OpenWRT but I have absolute no idea on where to start or even if it is really possible.

Can anyone help me with this.

Bye

It's not possible, it only has 2MB flash and 8MB RAM. OpenWRT needs at least 4MB flash and 16MB RAM to run.

You might be able to get it running if you find bigger flash and RAM chips that you can solder on.
