Already done with more details and not in a script  
(http://www.ilesansfil.org/wiki/OpenWrt_2fProcedureISF)

I don't think using a script is a good idea (except if the script is 
"fool proof testing")
The WRT is really tricky (I don't know why) and a manual configuration 
with some testing may be required
I saw some WRT doing weird thing and an automated script can put you in 
trouble with half configured router

For a more complet documentation read this wiki pages :
