All,
I'm having a problem mounting a partition during the 10adduser script
(live-bottom) execution. It just says "Invalid Argument". I've got a data
partition that has already has been formatted with an ext3 filesystem. In the
rest of the script it does the rest of the work relative to a root directory so
I made my calls the same. The script has:
if [ "${BOOTOPTION}" == "Yes" ]; then
mkdir /root/data
mount /dev/sda1 /root/data
fi
That's what gives me the invalid argument.
The whole point of what I'd like to do is have sort of a modular setup. I want
to be able to have a tarball of a bunch of apps and configs that the particular
kiosk will need, and the live cd will be setup expecting to untar the data and
link them etc. One of the things I'm trying to link is the /etc/shadow and
/etc/passwd. So in essence the end user will be give a cd with the live binary
stuff etc and a data tarball then on startup the scripts will mount the data
partition, soft link passwd and shadow (and some other stuff) in order to have
sort of persistence with the password changes. We don't want all the kiosks
having the same credentials.
So any help with the above problem would be great, and if anybody has tried and
succeeded (or failed) at linking the passwd and shadow files at boot time
please let me know what worked and doesn't work etc.
Thanks,
~ Scott
