The examples apply to various RUTOS routers, SDK versions and operating systems. In most cases the difference will only be that of a visual nature, The availability of SDK Firmware branding begins from version 7.05, although some of these modifications may be accessible on earlier firmware versions.

Most examples provided in this page are independent from each other. But it is highly recommended to acquaint yourself with the basics by reading the "[[#Prerequisites|Prerequisites]]" and "[[#Compiling_a_standard_firmware|Compiling a standard firmware]]" sections first as they contain information that will be necessary in order to understand some aspects of the other examples.

It should also be noted early that the first time you compile a firmware it may take up to a few hours to complete. Once the initial compilation is complete, packages will not be re-compiled next time, therefore the duration will decrease significantly. Please be aware that this also depends on your machine.

It should also be noted early that the first time you compile a firmware it may take <b>about two hours</b> to complete. On later attempts the duration is considerably lower.

Create a new folder (for this example I'll be using a directory called <i>RUTX_R</i> found at my <b>home</b> directory) and extract the SDK archive inside it. You can achieve this with drag and drop or by executing this command via Terminal:

  tar -xf ~/Downloads/RUTX_R_GPL_00.XX.YY.Y.tar.gz -C ~/RUTX_R

 

  cd ~/Downloads

tar -xzvf RUTX_R_GPL_00.07.05.X.tar.gz

<b>Note</b>: the first time you compile a firmware file it may take up to <b>30 minutes</b> before it is complete. Don't close the Terminal window up until then. Once it is finished, you will find the firmware in the <i>./bin/targets/ipq40xx/generic</i> directory. It should contain a file openwrt-ipq40xx-qcom-ipq4018-rutx-squashfs-apps.bin, it can be used to upgrade your router's firmware via its web interface.
