FYI: direct changes to the /overlay aren't noticed by = the kernel, you have to reboot first. I can't say that I'm an exper= t, I've just poked around at it. I just deleted the whole directory (IE= : rm -rf /overlay/etc/uci-defaults). Upon reboot the entire directory is re= verted to the contents of /rom.
