In the latest .342, when I click install media server, it proceeds up to 99% and just hangs. Tried deleting the asusware folder on the HDD as well as all other asus files on the disk but still hangs. Anyone get media server to install completely and work?
not likely

Sometimes, the reboot command will write back the cached content of the nvram. It's best to boot the router with no USB disk plugged in (to avoid filesystem corruption), run the mtd-erase command, and then turn the router off and on rather than running the reboot command.
Now that you mention it, it makes sense. Thanks
I think 3.0.04.342 isn't the best firmware from asus, this morning when i turned on my laptop my tv.series autodownload started over 5.2 ghz wifi. 4 torrents of 1 gb each on a 100 mbps WAN connection. after 2 mins, the router froze, couldn't ping it, telnet it, nothing, had to cut its power. started the router and the download again, 2 more minutes another freeze.
so for now i've changed to padawan's custom firmware, mediaserver works, router doesn't freeze, wired transfer to and from usb attached hdd is better, only issue is that the transfer to usb attached hdd which is a bit slower than with the asuswrt (8.5 mB/s vs 7.8 mB/s )
