Hello Erich,

That's only partial possible, at least a few few packages need to be installed in the linuxrc script (etc.lrp, config.lrp, ..) to make it work. So there needs to be some code in the initrd package to install those packages.

Well.... I believe the only thing really needed is lrpkg.lrp or whatever suffix is used. It does _not_ really have to be a .lrp file (much like initrd.lrp). From that very moment everything could be loaded by the package manager, whichever is used.


so basically the sequence could be:

boot
load initrd
load the package manager
load whatever is needed to run init (using the package manager)
run init (which might load other stuff using the package manager)


If you want to have the flexibility to change the config/package system by having it in a seperate package, you need some code in initrd.lrp to load that config package.

I just hate redundant code, even in scripts.


cheers
Erich
