Hey, I was typing out a question here, and ended up realizing something - I did a little extra googling and found the answer before sending, but just to contribute I will still send the question and attach the answer.. because its sort of weird.
QUESTION: I am building a LiveCD (trying to convert some of the SoShal stuff over to Ubuntu from Gentoo for sake of managing it better), anyways - I've got everything pretty much set up except when I boot, "something" seems to over write the original /etc/event.d/ttyX files from the squashfs that is on the LiveCD. Does anyone know what mechanism this is, and how to override it? I've done some googling and I think it has something to do with the way casper sets up the system? ANSWER: It does have to do with the way casper sets up the system I found this: sed -i -e "s|^exec.*|exec /bin/login -f $USERNAME </dev/$(basename $f) > /dev/$(basename $f) 2>\&1|" $f in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/casper-bottom/25configure_init I haven't actually tested out the theory yet, but I am going to disable that script from running and if that doesn't work, I will get it to write the actual proper config for the file. --Greg _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
