Due to the overwhelming success of the first Hack Day, TriLUG is doing
it again: Hack Day No.2.
http://trilug.org/2012-02-10/hackday

Hack Days are kind of like an install fest, where members come
together face to face to share ideas and lend a helping hand. The
theme for this hack day will be on running Linux (OpenWRT) on Wireless
Routers. We ran out of time at the last Hack Day, so let's do it
again.

Please add your router to the table on the OpenWRT Hack Day wiki:
http://trilug.org/wiki/2012-02-10-hackday

Location:
SplatSpace located at 331 W. Main Street Durham, NC.

Date:
The hack day will be on Saturday 10th March 2012. All day. 10am - 5pm

The activities for the day include:
* installing OpenWRT firmware (linux) on peoples routers
* learn some embedded linux skills
* build and customizing OpenWRT packages
* take apart routers to add serial ports and other electronics
* fix bricked and broken routers if we can

What to Bring
* laptop/desktop for building and deploying code
* wireless router or other funky equipment to run OpenWRT
* CAT5 network cable
* serial cables, usb-serial adapters, jtag pods (if you have them)
