If you installed livecd-tools, the inittab is overwritten by /sbin/livecd-functions.sh when the cd boots ( it is backed up to inittab.old ). One way to fix it is to modify the script by creating a new livecd-tools ebuild in your portage overlay - copy the current ebuild and just add the patch to it.

I believe you can overwrite it in the overlay or you can do "equery
belongs /etc/inittab" in your own system to discover it belongs to
sys-apps/sysvinit, so you can change that too.

Hi Folks,

I'm attempting to generate an amd64 livecd that starts up a tty on a
serial port.  So I want to do is add the line
"s0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 115200 ttyS0 vt100" to the /etc/inittab.
The trouble is, I can't figure out exactly where iniitab is coming from.
Where does catalyst get /etc/inittab from?  Is it direct from the stage1
seed?  How should I go about modifying it?

Thanks,


-J
