Enabling Telnet on the Linksys X3000

(1/2) > >>

GigabitEthernet:
The Linksys X3000 has a Broadcom 6361 chipset and it ships without telnet. Thanks to asbokid, I have discovered that it is not in the firmware so I am going to have to add it.

Now, thanks to the 'Firmware Mod Kit' I have extracted the firmware. But I need some help on adding telnet to it, then re-building the firmware in order to flash it to the router. This is being done under Ubuntu Linux.
 
If anybody could be of any assistance it would be great.

asbokid:
So before proceeding any further, you need the corresponding mksquashfs that matches the unsquashfs used to unpack the root file system...
cheers, a

GigabitEthernet:
Right. I believe the mksquashfs that I need is 4.2. I have got this, but how exactly do I use it?

GigabitEthernet:
Right, I have managed to make an 'fmk.sqsh' file. What do I do with this?

asbokid:
The two file systems, before unpack and after being repacked, should be identical.    If they're not, repeat with tweaks until they are.  Compare by file size and with a hashing function, md5sum or similar.
cheers, a
