opkg upgrade = endless IRQ messages

Mine way of surviving dropbear & Xserver upgrades:

1. Run terminal in the GUI
2. # opkg upgrade > upgrade.log &
3. connect through ssh from your PC
4. # tail -f upgrade.log
5. If you are disconnected, just connect again and run 4.

In case of failure you have a log.
