Cool that there's so many dd-wrt (and siblings) fans here.

I must have skipped a beat during the install.  Things seem to be 
running fine, but I can't seem to save files and directories which will 
survive a reboot.  I read that "nvram save" was meant to do that, but it 
doesn't work for me.  I've got plenty of space on the 8M SD card, but no 
way to write a file which will persist, let alone install pfsense on.  Help!
