 ====== RouterStation Pro ======
+===== DebWRT =====
+==== Build image ====
+  * svn checkout https://svn.debwrt.net/debwrt/trunk debwrt
+  * cd debwrt
+  * make menuconfig
+  * Target system is: Atheros AR71xx/AR7240/AR913x
+  * Subtarget is: Generic
+  * Target Profile is: Ubiquiti RouterStation Pro
+  * (if you are using usb drive instead of sd card) Enter in "Kernel Configuration" and edit the device in "Default kernel command line" from sda1 to sdb1
+  * (optional) make openwrt/menuconfig
+  * (optional) make openwrt/kernel_menuconfig
+  * make
+==== Prepare external rootfs (SD card or USB disk) ====
+  * Partition the USB Disk/Stick/Compact? Flash Card/SD Card:
+<code>/dev/sdb1 - DEBWRT_ROOT - Linux - ext3 - Rest of available size
+/dev/sdb2 - DEBWRT_SWAP - Linux Swap - 128MB</code>
+  * Create filesystems
+<code>mkfs.ext3 -L DEBWRT_ROOT /dev/sdb1
+tune2fs -c 0 -i 0 /dev/sdb1
+mkswap /dev/sdb2</code>
+==== Copy rootfs on your SD card or USB disk ====
+  * (if you have not automount) mkdir -p /media/DEBWRT_ROOT ; mount /dev/sdb1 /media/DEBWRT_ROOT
+  * make debian/rootfs/install (Be careful! An rm -Rf on /media/DEBWRT_ROOT is done first!)
+==== Flash firmware (kernel) ====
+  * Follow [[hardware:routerstationpro#Flash firmware|Router Station Pro OpenWRT flash instruction]] using bin/ar71xx-*-*-default/debwrt-firmware-ar71xx-generic-ubnt-rspro-squashfs-factory.bin
+==== Kernel upgrade ====
+Using "make openwrt/kernel_menuconfig" you can tune your kernel configuration, after your customization you can compile running "make" (NOTE: if you don't have an older enviroment you must follow the instruction to [[hardware:routerstationpro#Build image|build a DebWRT image]])\\
+To use the newer kernel you must unpack bin/ar71xx-*-*-default/debwrt-modules-ar71xx-generic_UBNTRSPRO-*-*.tar.gz in /media/DEBWRT_ROOT/ (assuming that you have mounted DebWRT rootfs on /media/DEBWRT_ROOT/) and follow the instruction to [[hardware:routerstationpro#Flash firmware (kernel)|flash DebWRT kernel]]
