Main Method

The JFFS File System allows you to have a writable Linux File System on your router running DD-WRT.
This allows you to save custom configuration files, host custom Web pages stored on the router, etc.

If you really need or want to use JFFS with a WRT54G you have to first enable JFFS under the Administration page,
and either:

1) use mini firmware on WRT54G (still doesn't leave much room...)
2) get a WRT54GS with bigger flash (not much more expensive than WRT54G but gives quite a bit of room, 14MB free with VoIP) (in the WRT54GSv4 they have changed the memory sizes to the WRT54G sizes)
3) get an Asus WL-500G deluxe (more expensive but gives unlimited room with USB [but not with DD-WRT *harhar*]) or Premium which does work with DD-WRT

4) Non-JFFS: do the the SD card mod (unlimited room using swapped multiple SD cards, but it's a really ugly and utterly nasty hack)
5) Non JFFS, but an alternative would be to go into setup and mount a samba share. Look at this for info on how. If you are a Linux newbie look at this other
