Your Debian Live USB should now boot and display a boot menu as shown on the screenshot below.

Add consolettyS0,115200n8 to the end of the command to make the serial connection usable.

Install Openwrt On X86 Pc Download X86 64

Make sure to download x86 64 combined-ext4.img.gz file.

We need an image called combined-ext4.img.gz.

Make sure you get the ext4 image; otherwise, you wont be able to resize the partition and use the entire disk space.

You could power off, remove the USB and boot your APU, but should probably also complete the last step to gain access to the entire space on the SSD.

Since we have a 16G disk, we would like to use the entire space.

We want to resize the latter partition to use the entire space.

From here you can reconfigure WAN and LAN settings as well as install all additional software you may want.
