DESCRIPTION

This program can control the leds on the front panel of the NSLU2, except for the ethernet led. The names of the leds are disk-1, disk-2, ready, and status.

The first usage above is used to set leds during system boot to indicate a particular boot state. 'boot' means that the system is transitioning to the new state. 'error' or 'panic' means a (potentially) recoverable error or an unrecoverable error ('panic') has occured.

The second usage above is used to set the named led to the given display, an arbitrary led trigger may be given.

The last usage above will, if possible cause the machine to emit a beep.
