Hi all,

Not knowing the bootscripts as well as I should, I'm not sure how
to fix a broken bootscript.

The GDM bootscript has the programs hardcoded into the /usr directory,
so if $GNOME_PREFIX is anything but /usr, none of the commands in the
script will work.

It seems simple enough to just change /usr to $GNOME_PREFIX in the
script, but:

1. I'm not sure that the bootscript sources the global profile, so
$GNOME_PREFIX is not set.

2. $GNOME_PREFIX may not be set in the global profile, instead in
individual user profiles.

What would be the best way to get the GNOME_PREFIX established in the
boot script?

Should we just place a note in the GDM section of the book where the
bootscript is installed and request that the file be modified manually?

Any ideas or suggestions are welcome.
