Update available: Update to the sysupgrade system, update to luci and general package changes.
https://github.com/Itus-Shield/opkgsYou will need to install the initramfs first, then upgrade (like an initial install). Hopefully, this will be the last time we will need to do this.
Some thoughts on updating:
sysupgrade will not re-install the opks automatically, but it will know it was previously installed when you reinstall it. With the fix to luci, you can successfully select additional paths to save during backups (like i save /etc/adblock so my backups of the blocklists are immediately available without having to go redownload and process them). When you reinstall adblock, it'll see the existing config file and give you a warning that it's putting the config that is in the opkg (the default one) as adblock.opkg and using the backup one.
Also, for anyone who is interested, I have enabled kernel debugging for this build. It'll make ti easier to track down issues. it makes the size bigger, but that isn't an issue we really have to deal with.
