Where does init load from. as far as I know the kernel mounts the root filesystem readonly(this is specified in the bootloader config), and calls init. init then takes it from there, running the scripts in /etc/rcS.d then the scripts in whatever runlevel is default for your system, usually /etc/rc2.d in the order that they appear in the directories. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
