This is what I'm looking for to the "T". Look at the "Practical Example"
further down the page.

I already pulled the WHR-G54S section out from the DD-WRT install page
and am getting ready to PDF it. I see the bummer part on TFTP for the
initial flash to DD-WRT, but subsequent flashes may be done with http.

I think the boardflags were for the WHR-HP units only, and it was to
enable the on-board amplifier.

After a bit more surfing, I'll set up my ThinkPad 760XL (cutting edge!)
to flash one of my WHR-G54S, that way my original one will still get me
to the web if need be.
