If you need something tested, I'm glad to help. I have two E3000s, one is used for dev only right now. Also have two WRT54GSv1.1s (no serial or jtag on those though). I may not get any patches out until tomorrow. Family life has taken priority today, and I need to finish up a patch to the nvram package for the E3000 to deal with the increased nvram size. I don't want to distribute the hacks I used to get it working.
