You should likely fix also wrt1900acs as that has likely quite similarly the longer code from the board detection script that I linked.
Without having an access to one -- where can I check the board_name file is for different devices? I'm not very familiar with how device-specific customizations are set during the build process, so would appreciate if you tell me which directory/file to look at on github. 
The board_name is usually set at run time, during boot process. Typically a board detect function in target's base-files, likely in /lib
I gave you above a link to the respective script file for mvebu. It shows how the value gets into /tmp/sysinfo...
For ea8500 in ipq806x target the similar functionality is in https://github.com/lede-project/source/blob/master/target/linux/ipq806x/base-files/lib/ipq806x.sh
I own an old Cisco E4200V2 with dual partitions, I will report back when I have time with the information you need stangri. That is one interesting feature you're implementing.
Especially true if you go back to a stock firmware on another partition, which would require flashing LEDE again to go back (unless using the power trick or serial). If configuration backup was not done before, would the settings be lost then ? If so a warning about making a backup of the settings would be a good thing.
@hnyman -- sorry, didn't check out the link before. I'm in the process of creating a README and updating the ipk with support for more routers.
@DjiPi -- I've checked https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/linksys/ea4500 and got the board_info from sources, but I'm not sure I have enough information (or looked hard enough at wiki). To add proper support I need the partition names (similar to https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/linksys/wrt_ac_series#flash_storage_layout), offset to read the firmware information and the command(s) and parameters to switch boot from one partition to another.
EDIT: My guess for an entry:
{"linksys-viper", "mtd3", "mtd5", 32, "boot_part", 1, 2, "bootcmd", "run nandboot", "run altnandboot"}
This is the output for E4200v2:

Thank you @DjiPi (please let me know your GitHub username so I could list you in credits), support for Linksys E4200v2/EA4500 has been added in version git-17.080.69173-773734e27-4. If you have my repo added, you can upgrade with: opkg update; opkg upgrade luci-mod-alt-reboot.
Thank you very much for your work @stangri , I'll test on my E4200v2 soon. Me newly created Github is jpstyves.
On a side note, I always wanted to have a button to perform a clean Poweroff because I always felt bad just unplugging the poor thing drastically... I think that it could be a nice addition, and people that don't have dual-boot partitions would also have a reason to install your Web UI enhancement.
Great idea! Try luci-mod-alt-reboot git-17.080.69173-773734e27-5.
Using the standard reboot feature and upon effective reboot, got that error in Luci:
/usr/lib/lua/luci/ccache.lua:70: error loading module 'luci.controller.admin.system' from file '/usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/admin/system.lua':

Cut and paste error :

luci.sys.call("/sbin/poweroff") end

Great mod ! I've tried it, very usefull !
But, for me, on my WRT3200ACM, as I test many LEDE releases (snapshot, RC, stable, david...), I don't know if it's my install process (sysupgrade -n F -v lede-mvebu-linksys-wrt3200acm-squashfs-factory.img) but I only have "LEDE" on both partitions:
This device (Linksys WRT3200ACM) has following partitions:
Partition 1: LEDE
Partition 2: LEDE <-- active
Would it be possible to add for example, the kernel version or a "uname -a" ?
Thanks !
Everything is working great, Reboot, Partition Reboot and Poweroff. Great work @stangri !
To answer @aqwserf 's request, maybe to display in parentheses the carved system name when it's LEDE only ?
I think that this would only be possible for the "active" partition. The inactive partition would require a carved name from the appropriate mtdxx and little cleanup to remove invalid chars.
Kernel version information is added in luci-mod-alt-reboot_git-17.080.69173-773734e27-7_all.ipk. If anyone has ideas on how can I fetch the proper OpenWrt/LEDE version/revision number from the non-mounted partition, please let me know. I've looked into the proper way to obtain this information on the running system a while back and the only suggestion back then was to screen scrape /etc/banner file, which will probably take a lot of upkeep in the long run.
I think that it would be good if you could put in that readme the uninstall instructions to revert to the standard Luci interface also.
Jean-Pierre -- the only way to uninstall is to re-flash LEDE. I think it would be quite cynical to add that to README.
As per Hannu's suggestion I'll convert it to the standalone (luci-mod-advanced-reboot) shortly which will not overwrite default Reboot page.
Indeed 
. No need to reflash, firstboot command is your friend. Very happy about the new upcoming package also!
Ah, right, there's another way:
cp /rom/usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/admin/system.lua /usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/admin/system.lua
cp /rom/usr/lib/lua/luci/view/admin_system/reboot.htm /usr/lib/lua/luci/view/admin_system/reboot.htm

A mod which doesn't overwrite default reboot page is called luci-mod-advanced-reboot and is available from the same location (my repo).
I've beautified it a little bit, next step would be to implement confirmations for the alternative partition reboot and power down.
