Comment (by anonymous):
I'm pretty sure that the file system that is in use right now, SquashFS
gives us the maximum compression that is possible.
See: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/filesystems#squashfs
We could change the compression algorithm from LZMA to something else, but
that would take a lot of work. It may also cause the router to use up more
CPU cycles to decompress the files if we use a much more aggressive
algorithm.
If you are really desperate for the ability to install more packages, you
could try the DIR 615 E1-E4 USB port mode as outlined here:
http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/d-link/dir-615/ex-usb
Following that, you can then use ExtRoot as shown by the guide here:
