+To add additional features, one can generate a package file that can then be added to an already running openwrt system.
+</p>
+<p>
+There are two ways to do this:
+</p>
+<ol><li>Compile IPK file manually
+</li><li>Turn on functions in make menuconfig and have them built automatically. (See this link <a class="wiki" href="/wiki/OpenWrt/Configuration">here</a>)
+</li></ol><p>
+Option 1 is listed below:
+</p>
+<p>
+To generate IPK Files, an example is listed here:
+</p>
+<ol><li>Checkout the gateworks source code as explained on the wiki <a class="wiki" href="/wiki/OpenWrt/building">OpenWrt/building</a>.  Build the software.
+</li><li>cd into the trunk directory.
+</li><li>Type the following command, adjusting it depending on the needed package:
+</li></ol><pre class="wiki">make package/feeds/packages/lighttpd/install -j8 V=99 &amp;&amp; make package/index
+</pre><p>
+Example output below:
+</p>
+<pre class="wiki">rerbstoesser@softdev:/usr/src/rerbstoesser/builds/gateworks-openwrt-12-10/trunk$ make package/feeds/packages/lighttpd/install -j8 V=99 &amp;&amp; make package/index
