You NEED to verify your router has 4MB flash, follow the instructions.
If your router only has 2MB flash - you CANNOT flash Gargoyle on it.
Also, keep in mind, those routers have 125mhz processors, and that
is going to be REALLY slow on certain things and slow performance.
If you're just trying to try - good luck, but if you're looking for
some equipment to work well for you - choose something else.
Looks like you would just flash the generic Broadcom image - but
I am not sure - Eric would know about this?
