DebWRT

DebWrt is a niche Linux distribution mainly installed on embedded devices, e.g. residential gateways. It is built on top of an OpenWrt base which is used to load a fully functional version of Debian from the RootFS stored on the attached USB storage device. For easy installation and deinstallation of packages it relies on the dpkg Package management system. DebWrt uses the command-line interface of bash. There is no web-based GUI interface at this time.

The project itself incorporates a Wiki, a Forum and a CVS for project management and bug-tracking.

Features

DebWrt offers all of the features provided in the stock firmware for residential gateways, such as DHCP services and wireless encryption via WEP, Wi-Fi Protected Access and WPA2. In addition it offers all of the features offered by Debian that are typically not included in a standard firmware.
