[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH 2/9] ar71xx: PowerCloud CAP324 image generation

[Daniel Dickinson]

Sorry for coming off strong, but spending what time I have on another 
weekend or two farting around figuring out something used to be pretty 
much a quick cut and paste, on top of the however many weekends I spent 
my spare time working on the board definitions and such really is really 
unappealing.

Regards,

Daniel
