Installing Debian x64

In Virtualbox, I am installing the 7.2.0 Wheezy 3 DVD set and afterwards running an apt-get update

Preparing development environment for DD-WRT

After ensuring all the updates, we want to install the development libaries

I'm running as root because this box will not have any outside incoming connections anyways

apt-get install gcc g++ binutils patch bzip2 flex bison make gettext unzip zlib1g-dev libc6 subversion

Downloading DD-WRT Toolchains

mkdir ~/Toolchains
cd ~/Toolchains
wget ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/toolchains/toolchains.tar.xz

if for some reason, your download doesn't finish (power outage, inet outage) just add --continue after the wget and it will resume where it left off assuming you are in the same directory as your target download.

Uncompress the toolchains

tar -xpvJf toolchains.tar.xz

Downloading Development Code

mkdir ~/DEV
cd ~/DEV
svn co svn://svn.dd-wrt.com/DD-WRT .
