   - Depending on your hardware the build could take a while, but when it finishes you should have a [[:docs:guide-user:installation:generic.sysupgrade | sysupgrade file]] that looks similar to this: <color #008080>bin/targets/ramips/mt7620/openwrt-ramips-mt7620-zyxel_nbg6515-ac750-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin</color>   - Depending on your hardware the build could take a while, but when it finishes you should have a [[:docs:guide-user:installation:generic.sysupgrade | sysupgrade file]] that looks similar to this: <color #008080>bin/targets/ramips/mt7620/openwrt-ramips-mt7620-zyxel_nbg6515-ac750-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin</color>
   - If done correctly, the produced build can be flashed onto the device as described in the previous installation section. Note however that the compatability-identifier is changed in the patch so you have to do a force-flash.   - If done correctly, the produced build can be flashed onto the device as described in the previous installation section.
