Just when I thought things were going well...

I keep having Slax hang on me.  I am running slax from a usb stick on dell
laptop and had thought it was coming together nicely.  But no...

What I've ascertained so far is:
- slax sets up a filesystem in memory, it is destroyed when you reboot;
- there is a subdirectory called "rootcopy" that you can put changed system
files into;

I've made a modified version of rc.inet1 and it's stored in the right place
in rootcopy. It has been correctly appearing in the /etc/rc.d directory and
running as part of startup. Now, however, when I try to access it, either
from the command line or from konqueror, the machine freezes up.  Whatever
it is doing can't be stopped and I have to do a hard reboot to get out of
it.

Any ideas what I've done?  I can't even think where to start.  I've searched
the slax forums, but the only reference to similar behaviour was a question
that no one answered!

Also, what would you normally use to kill a program that's stopped
responding? Is there something like task manager in windoze?

Thanks
Kerry.
