Awesome. I was looking at installing either Tomato or DD-WRT on my WRT54GL -- I want proper local DNS (e.g. dnsmasq) w/o needing a full-blown server. I was put off by the seemingly insane amount of warnings on the DD-WRT site. I'll try your way instead.

Navigating through DD-WRT's site always pushes me back over to Tomato. It's the most confusing mess of a site.

Plus, Tomato's admin screens are so much nicer to look at smile
