According to the login prompt of petitboot when I connect via telnet if I set up a password using passwd, then the telnet access is switched off and I can only access via ssh.
This is true until I reboot, and then the ssh login does not work (I guess because the password has not been stored) and I can still logon via telnet.
As a side question, I have a small practical problem using ssh. Basically the OS (i.e. Fedora) & petitboot both provide a ssh access. My ssh client (on a laptop) complains that the public key of the same IP changes between petitboot and Fedora and this could be a potential security risk.
It even goes by preventing all connections until I have removed the relevant line from .ssh/.kwon_hosts.
Any idea how to "improve" that?

That is correct, OpenWRT's file system in flash is read-only.
Please post petitboot questions to the cbe-oss-dev mailing list:
