hi guys i've being using Linux for a while now and i reckon it's time to get serious, for a while i've being looking at OpenWRT for my brcm4718 based WNR3500L, but i'm finding it hard to start as i'm unaware what i'm doing, i have had a few firmwares on it and Chillifire is on it now, now Chillifire is all well and good and it is OpenWRT with a pink fluffy GUI.

i have being trying to build my own starting from SVN, i have the OpenWRT Buildroot .pdf

now is this a good starting point ?

BTW: any and all help / advice will be gratefully received

thank you very much for reading this
