Got the sshd server working on my dd-wrt system, after changing the dd-test.sh script to this. The packages are now:

jcomeau@ns002:/usr/src/firmware_mod_kit/trunk$ ls -1 *ipk
dropbear_0.48.1-1_mipsel.ipk
mtd_5_mipsel.ipk
nano_1.3.8-1_mipsel.ipk
uclibc_0.9.28-6_mipsel.ipk

Nano doesn't work because libncurses is missing, but no sweat... now that sshd is running I can remove the telnetd component from busybox, and maybe free up enough space for a lib or two, or maybe install vim. And with mtd, hopefully I won't have to keep using tftp to test new installs... we'll see! This is a pretty fun project overall, so far. What I dread is the hardware hacking I'll need to do in order to add an input device. I'm so bad with soldering lately.
