/root survives firmware upgrade and vol+ emergency firmware fallback. It does not service factory reset. It would be easy to add a startup script to run changes automatically, but then if the update was bad, only a factory reset would save you, and you wouldn't know if the base had changed and the update not applied. So I haven't done it. Look in /etc/init.d/rcS to see what gets run if it exists. -- Millwood 2 SB3, 1 Duet Debian Lenny server 2 AP (netgear, linksys) wireless network. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Millwood's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3600 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67826 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
