Again, any script in /etc/uci-defaults gets executed on bootup before any of the packages installed are started. After the scripts in /etc/uci-defaults are finished, they are deleted, never to be run again. This seems like what you are proposing here in your 3rd item in the list above, but it is already there :) These scripts can perform anything you like, including starting up another process that you require during that script. There's nothing specific to UCI there, except that the boot process is far enough to be able to use uci but has not started anything further yet. So, is your problem that you want stuff to get triggered after ipkg install, on an already running system, or what is the problem (sorry if I'm too dense to pick it up from your mail :$) Regards, Ithamar. _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
