Remove existing optware first (If there are any) and then install it,
rm -rf /mnt/disk1/.optware
rm -rf /usr/lib/ipkg
cd /tmp
wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs08q1armel/cross/stable/ls-mvkw-bootstrap_1.2-7_arm.xsh
sh ./ls-mvkw-bootstrap_1.2-7_arm.xsh
mv /etc/init.d/optware /etc/init.d/rc.optware
ipkg update
I installed an old version of transmission as I need proxy functionality. Proxy functionality has been removed in newer versions.

Successfully terminated.
Create start up and kill scripts,
update: if S95transmission.sh startup script does not get executed, when the linkstation is rebooted please refer to this blog post. http://swapoff.blogspot.com/2015/02/fix-optetcinitd-scripts-not-executing.html
echo '/opt/bin/transmission-daemon -g /mnt/disk1/share/.config/transmission-daemon' >/opt/etc/init.d/S95transmission.sh

echo 'killall /opt/bin/transmission-daemon' >/etc/rc.d/extensions.d/K05transmission.sh
chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/extensions.d/K05transmission.sh
Create required directories for transmission,
mkdir /mnt/disk1/share/downloads
chmod -R 775 /mnt/disk1/share/downloads
mkdir /mnt/disk1/share/incomplete
chmod -R 775 /mnt/disk1/share/incomplete
Execute S95transmission.sh to start transmission,
/opt/etc/init.d/S95transmission.sh
/opt/bin/transmission-daemon: error while loading shared libraries: libevent-1.4.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
If transmission requires older libevent libs, install them manually,
cd /
tar -xvf /mnt/disk1/share/libevent_1.4.13-1_arm.tar.gz
Try to start transmission again.
/opt/etc/init.d/S95transmission.sh
/opt/bin/transmission-daemon: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.0.9.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
If transmission requires openssh 0.9.7 and if you can't find the libraries just copy 0.9.8 libraries as 0.9.7 libraries or just create symbolic links.
cd /opt/lib/
cp libssl.so.0.9.8 libssl.so.0.9.7
cp libcrypto.so.0.9.8 libcrypto.so.0.9.7
or
ln -s libssl.so /opt/lib/libssl.so.0.9.7
ln -s libcrypto.so /opt/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7
You should be able to start transmission now. Transmission will create it's own configuration files and folders once it is started.
Now it's time to configure settings.json file. You have to stop transmission daemon before editing this file.
kill transmission daemon
killall transmission-daemon
Edit settings.json file with your requirements. You can find more information about the parameters in this configuration file from https://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/EditConfigFiles link.
cd /mnt/disk1/share/.config/transmission-daemon
cp settings.json settings.json.bk
After doing the changes, here is the diff of my old and new configuration files,
diff -b settings.json.bk settings.json

umask changed to 2 so that newly created files by transmission will have rw permission.
umask explanation from https://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/EditConfigFiles,
umask: Number (default = 18) Sets transmission's file mode creation mask. See the umask(2) manpage for more information. Users who want their saved torrents to be world-writable may want to set this value to 0. Bear in mind that the json markup language only accepts numbers in base 10, so the standard umask(2) octal notation "022" is written in settings.json as 18.
below command is useful to convert octal number to base 10 number,
echo $(( 8#002 ))
