Sure. I played with it a bit, and there is one thing I'm not sure about.
1) Technically
It makes more sense to change change LED blinking when OpenWrt enters
"init" stage (after "preinit"). That would simply require
START=00
boot() {
set_state init
}
in the /etc/init.d/setstate
2) Practically
For user it makes more sense to know when the failsafe mode can (not)
be entered. This would simply require
set_state preinit_post_failsafe_wait
at the end of /lib/preinit/30_failsafe_wait
Which would be better to implement?
