Hi all!

I have a few questions. Firstly, how do I control the starting of services at 
boot? Eg. which services installed should be started and which shouldn't. Do I 
need to remove some links from the appropriate runlevel-dirs or is there a 
better way of doing that? I remember in suse, there was a general system-wide 
config-file called rc.local where I could just switch some flags to "NO".

Secondly, how do I set the system-wide default keyboard map under debian? I saw 
that when booting, the map file loaded is /etc/kbd/default.map.gz. At first, I 
added a line containing the command "loadkeys" at the end of /etc/profile, but 
I think that's not too elegant, so what's the proper way of doing that?

My last problem concerns dual-booting w/z lilo. I have dumped my current 
lilo.conf below. This setup causes me to reboot when I choose "win" at the lilo 
prompt. Any suggestions? My hw-setup is: hda is 20g primary master hd, where 
debian resides. hdb contains a single win-fat32 partition.

*** lilo.conf ***

boot=/dev/hda3
root=/dev/hda3
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
prompt

image=/vmlinuz
 label=Linux
 read-only

other=/dev/hdb1
 label=win
 loader=/boot/chain.b
 table=/dev/hdb

*** lilo.conf ***

Thanks a lot!
Sven
