How to overwrite hostname and banner with uci-defaults

For Developers
1

I have two uci-defaults scripts, but it doesn't work

#!/bin/sh
[ "$(uci -q get system.@system[0].hostname)" = "FoxHole" ] && exit 0

uci -q batch << EOF
	set system.@system[0].hostname="FoxHole"
	commit system
EOF

exit 0

#!/bin/sh
if grep -q "Freedom for foxes!" /etc/banner; then
    exit 0
fi

echo "" > /etc/banner

cat << EOF > /etc/banner

Why?

2

Where are you putting them, and what names do you give them?

What’s your test method?

3

Im putting it in {buildroot}/files/etc/efci-defaults/
Names 30-change_hostname and 31-change_banner

Testing it by rebuild and reflash sd card

4

Typo?

Which device? RPi, for example, sometimes do not erase old config when reflashing.

5

Yes, I was wrong, I meant uci-defaults

Orange Pi R1 Plus LTS

6

If you reset to factory defaults, then reboot, does you script work?

7

No
It deletes after first boot

8

That implies it has run successfully. Hmm…
