1. Cant find to edit the GUI pages or it is not extracted

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Everything runs fine

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Ubuntu

Everything is extracted/build correctly, I dont know were to go now after
extrating the firmware (never extrated ddwrt before), my guess is that 1mb
file on
/root/ddwrt/firmware-mod-kit-read-only/trunk/firm/image_parts/squashfs-lzma-imag
e-3_0
is an lzma file, do I add the extension .lzm and attempt to extract it ?

If everything ran fine, the squashfs image was properly extracted and you 
shouldn't need to extract it manually. You can't find the Web pages because 
they are actually compiled into the httpd binary in DD-WRT. Don't ask me why.

Since hffnercj is too polite to say why the web pages are compiled into the 
httpd binary, I will: The reason why is because Brainslayer claimed the web UI 
as 'his' and made it closed source, despite the fact that it is a GPL 
derivative work from the original Broadcom->Linksys->Sveasoft line. This 
protects DD-WRT's web UI from modification. For a long time after the initial 
development of the FMK, he kept initially breaking compatibility of the 
squashfs signature as well, to prevent use of the FMK. Go ask him why ;)
