I've only just started playing with Kamakazi (I have several running
white russian), so I'm afraid I won't be much help.  I always used SSH
and vi for configuration, so I really can't help you with a GUI
selection.  If you do have problems with understanding the current
version, you could always drop back a version as well.

http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Hardware/Linksys/WRT54GL?highlight=%28OpenWrtDocs/Hardware%29
|
| But that just gives step-by-step instructions for sample configuration,
| whereas I would like an overview of how the system works internally so I
| can understand what's going on.  Is this an adequate page for that:
| http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/KamikazeConfiguration
| (which links to: http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/NetworkInterfaces)
|
| The manual (http://downloads.openwrt.org/kamikaze/docs/openwrt.html) seems
| to be a little thin...
