My /etc/rc.local has been around for a long time, has survived the trip from Debian jessie to Devuan jessie, and consists entirely of commands I put there myself and comments of unknown origin. Here are the comments: #!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. They do indeed look as if the originated in a Linux distribution sometime in the past, which would have been Debian, sonce I' ws using this before the switch to Devuan. So there has been a change if /etc/rc.local is no longer provided by the distro. Not providing it makes sense, because then an upgrade won't be asking whether to replace the modified one with the new one. -- hendrik _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
