Summary - om2p-lc sysupgrade fails silently
Task Type - Bug Report
Category - Base system
Status - Unconfirmed
Assigned To - 
Operating System - All
Severity - High
Priority - Very Low
Reported Version - Trunk
Due in Version - Undecided
Due Date - Undecided
Details - Supply the following if possible:
 - Device problem occurs on Openmesh om2p-lc
 - Software versions of OpenWrt/LEDE release, packages, etc.
LEDE Reboot SNAPSHOT r5360-a8a23ca

 - Steps to reproduce
sysupgrade -n /tmp/lede-ar71xx-generic-om2p-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
Sysupgrade appears to go through the motions but firmware doesn't upgrade and doesn't delete config files with the -n switch.
I've tried the factory and the sysupgrade file with the same results. This build upgrades as expedted with a tl-mr3420-v2 and tl-wr740n-v4.

Not sure if it's related but the om-watchdog init script also fails to detect the board type so doesn't start.
Changing this line in the /etc/init.d/om-watchdog init script gets the watchdog to start which make me think it's an identification issue.
local board=$(ar71xx_board_name)
change to
local board=$(cat /tmp/sysinfo/board_name)
