Ok, got it. Never personally tried LMS as I never needed it.

To have one less piece of hardware running and consuming and one less
plug in the wall (the router's USB does only give 0.5W). 
And because my router is capable of having additional packages
installed, run Perl etc.

I will surely buy another one that can run OpenWrt.

I don't want to have another (ok, low consumption -but still) piece of
hardware running 24/7 as I already have my router running 24/7.

That is not my problem. I do actually own a Pi already, but it's
designated to other purposes. 
I compiled OpenWrt myself and installed it on my router. 
I do fiddle.


As it stands now, the best option is to trying to make LMS work on
OpenWrt following the instructions for other Linux distributions. In
absence of pre-compiled package, I am afraid this project will have to
wait at least until Christmas vacations.
