That's why using the crontab command is a bit tricky, because you're
using your host machine command when you're building a new firmware
including your package (instead of installing the firmware in an
existing firmware).
In the example I gave (it was not specifically for /etc/crontab, but
it's more or less the same) you can prefix the files path you are
modifying with '$${IPKG_INSTROOT}' as in $${IPKG_INSTROOT}/etc/inetd.conf'.
So I would personnally stick with 'echo' instead of 'crontab'.

Cheers,
ben.
