Hi!
Thank You for helping me!
I have tried to edit the files you wrote about, but I still don't get it to
work properly.
In my Debian Live build, I have aldready got the line
1:2345:respawn:/bin/login -f user </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2&>1,
and no line containing getty. Is this because if have configured the
live-helper to enable autologin?
Still, when I am adding startx to my .bash_profile, the X server complains
about "server already running on display 0. Remove the X lock file in /tmp".
So, I suspect that I somehow already have got a live build that enables X
autologin, so I try once again to build without a .bash_profile and without
editing /etc/inittab, but still with a .xinitrc that starts my application. The
result then is the same as usual. I get to a console, automatically logged in
as user "user", but no X.
In your post about the inittab and the .bash_profile, I notice that the line in
.bash_profile says 'startx "'. Is the quotation mark (") accidentaly put there,
or should it be included (and why in that case)?
Regards,
Fredrik
