how to install over ddwrt

Joust

New Around Here
i looked but could not find any instructions on how to properly install this release on my ASUS router.
I have an N16 and am running DDwrt. filters do NOT work on that.
so i would like to try this. its pretty basic functionality i would think....

anyway do i simply reset to factory defaults and then flash the latest Merlin?
i'm sorry if this was covered before. I could not find installation instructions.

I got this straight from the readme file
Installation
------------
Simply flash it like any regular update. You should not need to
reset to factory defaults (see note below for exceptions).
You can revert back to an original Asus firmware at any time just
by flashing a firmware downloaded from Asus's website.

NOTE: resetting to factory default after flashing is
strongly recommended for the following cases:

- Updating from a firmware version that is more than 3 releases older
- Switching from a Tomato/DD-WRT/OpenWRT firmware

If upgrading from anything older and you experience issues, then
consider doing a factory default reset then as well.

In all of these cases, do NOT load a saved copy of your settings!
This would be the same thing as NOT resetting at all, as you will
simply re-enter any invalid setting you wanted to get rid of. Make
sure to create a new backup of your settings after reconfiguring.
