What I need is a first time initialization script. I used redboot 
default script option
for that, but I found that the script timeout was not set when flash 
config was enabled.
Also I needed some way to disable this script after the first time - the 
obvious way
was to set the script timeout to 0 from the initialization script, but I 
found out
that the script timeout value stored in flash is used only when custom 
boot script option is
enabled.

Here is what I did to make it work from me.
