    I have a couple of custom scripts I wrote for my firewalls (one script to assist state clearing on WAN failover, another that is used with NRPE checks) and I am losing them whenever I do an image upgrade.  I understand the nature of the Nano image and I realize why I am losing them.

    Is there any place in the filesystem I can add scripts that won't be overwritten during an upgrade?  Is there a better way to install the scripts (aside from making a package because that is beyond my skillset) so that they can survive an upgrade?

    Any advice is appreciated.

    Thanks.
