When Slackware Linux starts, it runs these init files: ----------------------------------------- /etc/rc.d/rc.S single-user mode setup /etc/rc.d/rc.M multi-user mode setup /etc/rc.d/rc.inet network setup ----------------------------------------- The HD version of BasicLinux uses the same structure. The ramdrive version combines single-user and multi-user setup into a single file: /etc/rc When a user logs in, two further configuration files are run: ------------------------------------------------- /etc/profile general bash setup /root/.profile personal setup (for root user) ------------------------------------------------- For non-root users, the personal configuration file is /home/username/.profile > what I mean is there a specific directory that these > files are located in the linux file system ? Configuration files are usually found in /etc > what file determines the "path" in linux Path can be set in various places for various purposes. For example, different paths can be defined for different users. However, if you have a look in /etc/profile, you will probably find a general path statement there.
