Comment (by ken@…):
My current thoughts are that this is very nasty!
For the first build, I omitted the sed to remove the broken ConsoleKit
support (I didn't think it had been fixed, but since I wasn't sure where
the breakage was or had been, it seemed worth trying).
Changing to runlevel 5, it didn't appear anywhere. Later, I found it had
its own log, and ConsoleKit was the problem.
But in the meantime I set the default runlevel to 5, and rebooted. Got an
onscreen keyboard, clicking on the 'keyboard' button took me to the
greeter, where I could enter username and password, either directly or by
dropping to the onscreen keyboard (which shows which key was pressed, so
not secure if people around), and I could select which WM/desktop.
But the password was never accepted.
Killed it, looked around and found the log. Reinstated the sed, tried
runlevel 5 again: the onscreen keyboard, but that dropped me to 'select
your user icon and enter the password' : that worked, I'm in now, but no
choice of WM and it has selected fluxbox (probably the first on the list).
Will try changing /etc/inittab and rebooting, but the onscreen keyboard
fills me with horror.
