QuickStart¶

Quickstart guide to creating a ZRouter build environment.¶

This should probably be done within a Jail.

At First, this Requires you have [[hg]]/mercurial installed:

• From FreeBSD ports:
  

  # cd /usr/ports/devel/mercurial
  # make install clean
  

• OR From FreeBSD packages:
  

  # pkg_add -r mercurial (or # pkg install mercurial)
  

1. Create a path set aside for ZRouter build.
   

   # mkdir -p ZRouter/

2. Enter directory:
   

   # cd ZRouter

3. Checkout/clone ZRouter Project
   

   # hg clone http://zrouter.org/hg/zrouter/

4. Checkout/clone Current compatible FreeBSD source:
   

   # hg clone http://zrouter.org/hg/FreeBSD/head FreeBSD

5. Begin ZRouter Build Menu
   

   # ./menu.sh

Entering ./menu.sh¶

1. Select your target device (example D-Link DIR-632):
   
2. Select Base Profile. That's two choise:
   - Small - size firmware > 4 MB (if your ROM more than 4 MB)
   - Extra small - size firmware <= 4MB (if your ROM less than 4 MB)
   
3. At "Profiles" select package that included firmware:
   
4. Last that must to do - select paths of source and build object:
   
   - Path of FreeBSD/head
   
   - Path of objects (temporary direcroty where will be compilate your firmware)
   
   Then go back to main menu:
   
5. You can save your selection to "Build Profile" for future use (file will be created at "./Zrouter/zrouter/build_profiles/" ):
   
   
6. You can load your Build Profile if you save it early:
   
   
7. Now select to "Build" and you see all your choices:
   
   Answer "yes" and firmware will begining.
