Install into your router?? I asked if that's what you wanted, and you said no! These other distributions are to install on a normal computer.

You must mean the linux mini-distribution for the wrt54g. It is the first google hit for the search terms linux wrt54g.

But you're not going to be able to do what you want with a router. It's not a full-fledged computer, you won't be able to fit all the things you need to do C programming on it.

cygwin is for windows. It's not for linux, and certainly not for routers. You could use it to install gcc on your windows computer and use that to make programs for the router, maybye, though it's not going to be easy to get it to make programs for the weird processor in your router.

Right. Or, close enough.

It can be, but this isn't an easy task even on a real linux system. gcc needs special configuration to cross-compile this way.

this distro can also be used on your router.
