possible support for WHR-HP-G300N

Hi all,

I'm guessing that the download links for the WHR-HP-G300N were removed from the 1.6.2 list because of problems like the ones in these posts:

It seems like in each case, there's not quite enough room on the router for the image to be mounted. In the last link, it shows that there's "Too few erase blocks (4)" to mount JFFS2.

Is there anything nonessential that could free up enough blocks to make it possible for this flash to work? Could I roll my own version of OpenWRT/Gargoyle using the instructions in the link below that would be smaller?

Is there a way I could remove something that isn't changed when the firmware is flashed? Here is my MTD table (I have Buffalo DD-WRT installed):

Code: Select all

dev:    size   erasesize name
mtd0: 00040000 00010000 "RedBoot"
mtd1: 003a0000 00010000 "linux"
mtd2: 002c4000 00010000 "rootfs"
mtd3: 00020000 00010000 "ddwrt"
mtd4: 00010000 00010000 "nvram"
mtd5: 00010000 00010000 "board_config"
mtd6: 00400000 00010000 "fullflash"
mtd7: 00040000 00010000 "fullboot"
I haven't actually tried anything yet, but I wanted to see what you guys thought of this. Thanks so much for any insight you can give.
