You can update busybox via opkg update, so it’s install time can be wrong as reference.
As a result you will have wrong list.
Only one thing you cannot install via opkg is kernel – because you update it over flashing new firmware.
So the kernel’s install time should be used as flash time.
FLASH_TIME=$(opkg info kernel | grep ‘^Installed-Time: ‘)
