Newer: Ubuntu-EEE
(Toll: einfach downloaden und mit GUI-Tool auf Stick packen. Alles geht, sogar Atheros Wifi. Bis auf den ethernet-treiber und beim 'runterfahren gibts bildschirmsalat. naja)
Erstmal Internet: Oben rechts auf Network-Manager klicken und irgendwat auswaehlen. Bei mir: Wep-Key Hex, danach kommt ein Save-Passwort-Dialog, den ich mit leeren eingaben und Unsafe password bestätige.

connect eth0 to dir-300(wan-port)
dir300-flash --factory
I recently exchanged a spare Atheros MiniPCI-Express wireless card for a new router. The box says, it's a D-Link DIR-300 currently available in the supermarket for approx. 30,-- Euros. After unboxing, I removed the label cying "!Stop, insert CD first" and attached an ethernet cable to the WAN port. According the the previous owner, I can telnet into redboot by using these commands. Start ALT-F2-"kdesu konsole" and type in:
killall NetworkManager;killall NetworkManagerDispatcher
killall dhcdbd;killall dhclient
ip addr add dev eth0 192.168.20.80/24
ip link set dev eth0 up
while true;do sleep 1;telnet 192.168.20.81 9000;done
switch on router, wait for "Escape is", press [ret]
Note, that this is a first test and there are other ways to stop DHCP from interfering a static IP address on the Ethernet port. The following steps are done on my netbook which runs under Kubuntu/Hardy. I also added the group "src" to my linux login using the Kubuntu user manager. Your Linux may vary...
=============
PLEASE: Alina has posted an updated script which corrects some issues. I'll leave my orig descrition
here, until I upgade this text while flashing live next time.
=============
After rebooting the netbook, I searched for the easy-flash tool announced by alina in order to flash ff-lucy on that thing. Docs on the DIR-300 and ff-luci can be found here:
http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Hardware/D-Link/DIR-300
http://luci.freifunk-halle.net
Now start by issueing ALT-F2-konsole and grab/unpack alinas script:
cd /usr/src
wget http://x-alina.freifunk-potsdam.de/downloads/dir300-flash/dir300-flash-0.9.5.tar.gz
tar xvzf dir300-flash-0.9.5.tar.gz
cd dir300-flash
sudo mkdir /usr/share/dir300-flash
sudo chgrp src /usr/share/dir300-flash
sudo chmod g+w /usr/share/dir300-flash
sudo chgrp
./dir300-flash.sh
Which complains something about "no tftp found". So I do:
sudo apt-get install tftpd-hpa
sudo chgrp src /var/lib/tftpboot
sudo chmod g+w /var/lib/tftpboot
sudo kwrite /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
[change to RUN_DAEMON="yes"]
sudo /etc/init.d/tftpd-hpa start
./dir300-flash.sh
Which says something about "No kernel". So I do:
wget http://dev.luci.freifunk-halle.net/freifunk-snapshots/atheros/openwrt-atheros-root.squashfs
wget http://dev.luci.freifunk-halle.net/freifunk-snapshots/atheros/openwrt-atheros-vmlinux.lzma
./dir300-flash.sh
Which mutters blabla about the IP addr of eth0. So I
sudo kwrite /etc/network/interfaces
[add the following statement]
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
up ip addr add dev $IFACE 192.168.20.80/24
up ip addr add dev $IFACE 192.168.0.2/24
down ip addr del dev $IFACE 192.168.0.2/24
down ip addr del dev $IFACE 192.168.20.80/24
[now restart eth0]
sudo ifdown eth0
sudo ifup eth0
./dir300-flash.sh
Which starts flashing that thing (needs some minutes). After successful flashing, you may "telnet 192.168.1.1" as a first step while eventually http://192.168.1.1/ may also work for you.
----------
For my special device, there was no original firmware on it. I needed to restore the D-Link FW using the emergency web UI under http://192.168.20.81/ to be able to flash successfully. Heres what is displayed, if no D-Link FW on the device:
RedBoot> load ap61.ram.dir300-flash
Using default protocol (TFTP)
Entry point: 0x800410bc, address range: 0x80041000-0x800680d8
RedBoot> go
[fload] execution fail! [go] abort...

Using that thing as freifunk router
===================================
With the advent of the ffluci interface, doing the base config is straightforward:
01) Start you web browser and go to http://192.168.1.1/. Click "Administration". Password is empty.
02) Go to "System:Passwort ändern" and hack in a new password.
03) Go to "Freifunk:Freifunkassistent". Activate "Freifunkzugang einrichten".
04) Enter your Freifunk-IP and click "Absenden" followed by "Speichern&Anwenden".
(This may restart the router. Wait and re-login using your new password)
05) Go to "Freifunk:Kontakt" and enter your credentials. Do not forget the GPS position.
06) Go to "System:System" and change "Hostname" and "Zeitzone". Click "Speichern&Anwenden".
07) Go to "Netzwerk:Drahtlos:Wifi0". Verfiy the settings. You may want "Rts=2346" and
"Fragment=2346". Click on "Speichern&Anwenden" shows uncritial error. Ignore.
08) Go to "System:Paketverwaltung:IPKG". Change the "8.09_rc1" to the correct
"8.09_RC1" uppercase. Click "Absenden".
09) Start "ssh 192.168.1.1" on your PC. Login. Enter "cd /etc/config;vi wireless".
Go to last line (in config 'wifi-iface' section) using the cursor keys. Press the
["i"] key and add a line "(tab)option sw_merge 1". Press ["esc"],["w"],["q"],["ret"].
This writes the file. The change prevents madwifi from blocking TX from time to time.
10) Enter "cd /etc/modules.d;vi 50-madwifi". Add "countrycode=276" behind "ath_ahb".
For vi usage see step 8. Your countrycode may be different. Free up channel 13 on
ath0, that channel is legal in country 276 (germany).
11) You may want a shell status script for OLSR. Enter "cd /usr/sbin" and cat and copy
echo>neigh.sh<<EOF
#!/bin/sh
wget -q -O - http://localhost:2006/neighbours
EOF
Then enter "chmod +x neigh.sh" and test by entering "neigh.sh".
12) Now install some soft. Enter "opkg update" and "opkg list". You may want to test
with "opkg install tcpdump". After installation, you may "tcpdump -ni ath0" to
watch the network activity.
The DIR-300 is now usable as Freifunk Router with reasonable defaults. After startup, it needs too long to grab active neighbours (needs a minute or two) for unknown reason. But you can attach a PC via cable, start DHCP on eth and use Freifunk as inet gate with this...
Again have fun,
