## How to install
Install ```luci-app-advanced-reboot``` from Web UI or connect to your router via ssh and run the following commands:
```sh
opkg update
opkg install luci-app-advanced-reboot
```

## Notes/Known Issues
- When you reboot to a different partition, your current settings (WiFi SSID/password, etc.) will not apply to a different partition. Different partitions might have completely different settings and even firmware.
- If you reboot to a partition which doesn't allow you to switch boot partitions (like stock vendor firmware), you might not be able to boot back to OpenWrt/LEDE Project unless you reflash it, loosing all the settings.
- Some devices allow you to trigger reboot to alternative partition by interrupting boot 3 times in a row (by resetting/switching off the device or pulling power). As these methods might be different for different devices, do your own homework.

## Thanks
I'd like to thank everyone who helped create, test and troubleshoot this package. Without contributions from [@hnyman](https://github.com/hnyman), [@jpstyves](https://github.com/jpstyves) and [@slh](https://github.com/pkgadd) it wouldn't have been possible.
