I think this would be a stretch. I've done quite a bit of hacking on 
uClinux and embedded systems (http://myturl.com/0009L) and the lack of a 
MMU and some of the standard stuff that every PC based Linux user is used 
to can be a pretty difficult road to trod.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for trying, but running it on the WR54g and/or 
the Actiontec Dual PC modem is probably not an option.
