Hello,

I know none of you have time to write tutorials but I just wanted to
know what's possible to set my expectations right and maybe get a few
pointers to get me going, so...

How much software and how many services can I squeeze onto a WRT54GL
router using squashfs and forgoing the webUI? In the order of descending
importance I would like to have:
   — iptables and ip6tables,
   — tunnel6 (for a SiXXs tunnel),
   — some monthly traffic statistics (preferably not lost on every
reboot, maybe vnstat?),
   — irssi (with ssl),
   — BIND (or some other IPv6-capable dns software) both as a local
resolver and to host a local tld and revdns,
   — sshfs,
   — L2TP/IPSec VPN _client_.

Possible? Or maybe there is a way to estimate how much space those will
take without trying to install them first?

Should I use the Image Generator? Or just use one of the prebuilt ones
and install the software once OpenWRT is up and running?

I'm trying to replace my home server which is an electricity-sucking
overkill and move as many services as possible to the router.

Thanks,
  Rafał Ochmański
