I was being an idiot. The reason the appropriate images where not there is simply because they were not created. The image resulting from my configuration is too big :( I had no problem with Chaos Calmer but I will need to do a little work finding options I do not need in LEDE.

This would be helpful. I tried simply selecting another profile but it deseleted the previous profile. How do I do this in menuconfig (i.e. build for all tl-wr841 versions and tl-wdr3600 v1)?
