Hi! Good future.
How Can I add the commands in to script after install the firmware?
wget -P /tmp/ -O telegram-openwrt_1.1.1-1_all.ipk https://github.com/alexwbaule/telegramopenwrt/releases/download/1.1.1/telegram-openwrt_1.1.1-1_all.ipk
opkg install /tmp/telegram-openwrt_1.1.1-1_all.ipk
I add The commands into the Script to run on first boot (uci-defaults) - it not work
I would put that in an autorun script instead.
How i can use it uses https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/ ?
I would first manually create and test an appropriate init.d script, that does what you need on every reboot.
Then once that works, I would try to find some
echo “…“ > your.initd.file
call for the image selector script section that automatically creates that initd file during installation.
It looks doable, but I do not know preexisting examples for that.
This can backfire on upgrades since a new version of OpenWrt may require a different set of dependencies that conflict with the previous version.
This feature seems to be great for easy upgrading when you have previously installed packages manually! Especially when upgrading a device which is connected via wifi only.
I'll try it when updating from 23.05 to 23.05.1. I will Not use opkg list-installed though, since as @vgaetera already pointed out, I can see how this could possibly mess things up. Instead, I will just add my manually installed packages to the prefilled list.
I have some technical questions about this feature:
Does the prefilled list contain exactly the same packages than an uncustomized build? As in, if I would just leave it at default, would the resulting generated image be exactly the same as the precompiled one?
Will dependencies be installed automatically? E.g. if I had iperf3 installed manually on my install and want to upgrade OpenWrt, can I just add iperf3 to that list or do I have to add libiperf3 (dependency of iperf3) as well?
If I were in your shoes, I'd use the Image Builder to create an image with that package already included.
I used the image builder and will answer my questions from above if anyone else stumbles on this question in the future:
Yes, dependencies will get installed automatically. I did not have any issues when using the generated image as sysupgrade.
Sry but I'm new at this, I tried customizing a build and I can't find where to download it from. Pointers please?
