tinc running openwrt (mikrotik metarouter mips)

[Yazeed Fataar]

Hi Maxim

The reason I have two kernel is as follows.

When I did fresh install of openwrt , i tried "opkg install tinc" . It then
said "dependency required , kernel (= 3.3.8-1-" as I was on 2.6.31. I then
downloaded 3.3.8-1 and did opkg install kernel. And this is how I have
both...I think i just need to get a better image to start off with...Ill
search and get back to you.
