Haven't been around here for a while, but I'm back to playing with LEAF
distros again after a 2-year hiatus.

I noted that WISP-DIST became part of LEAF, and I am interested in
building a cheap access point/firewall.

The firewall part is easy, but I'm having trouble finding a
comprehensive (read exhaustive) set of instructions, FAQ, How-to, or the
like on getting a DWL-520 (E-series) to work in a LEAF distro.

Most of the instructions are centered around full-blown distros, and
assume that I can compile kernels, user-mode apps, etc, on the machine
that the card will be installed in.  I can manage it in time, I think,
and if I have to slog through the process of mating all the steps, I
will (and I'll write a how-to, if there isn't one), but I'm hoping I
don't need to.

If anyone can provide pointers to documentation on creating a wisp
distro that supports the D-Link DWL-520 E1, I'd appreciate it.

If not, then Expect a how-to from me sometime next month ;)

P.S.  If you didn't already hear about it, H. P. Anvin has created
EXTLINUX in his latest test release of syslinux 2.20...might make for
some interesting options.
