Edit Reason: redact hash

Hi,
I'm trying to crack an unix password (hash is "$1$[redacted]." without the quotation). This is an md5 hash for unix password.
I'm sending it here as the idea is to crack and publish (any matching password).
My idea is to use my GPU and try to find anything matching... brute force?
How should I continue?
Background:
A manufacturer called "Ignition Design Labs" has stolen OpenWRT code - It is an GPLv2 and they released their product (wifi router "portal") without releasing the sources. There was some acquisition made by Razer.
Router itself has their own closed-source code - which is vulnerable as hell - so I can easily gain root there. And upload SSH keys for easy access. And read /etc/shadow. Router is running dropbear by default.
Now I would like to find a matching password so that the community could log in and modify the system configuration.
I have no idea what the password might be. Nor where to search for good dictionaries for combination mode. I don't need the right password - anything matching $1$[redacted]. would be OK. I don't have 4TB available for rainbow tables
So far I was just going to use an radeon 590 (or nvidia 970) with hashcat and hope to get lucky.
Any support would be appreciated - thanks in advance.
