"Unsupported" means "figure this stuff out yourself". Also, if you have any trouble at all in creating your /etc/rc.d/??? files by hand, you probably maybe should be concerned that you might want to just use one of the distributions designed to support normal startup from a hard drive.
"Unsupported" also means "it will probably break and delete all your files". > operate in single user? (I only need single user) - what else would we want > an rc.M to do? Tomsrtbt does not run in single-user mode, it just happens to have only one user. You want your rc files, which on tomsrtbt is only rc.S and rc.M, to do *everything* needed, which, on a normal distribution, will be spread out in directories, such as, in /etc/rc.d/. Review _all_ your normal startup files, understand what they do, and add the functionality to tomsrtbt as appropriate. That does for rc.0/rc.6, too. > 3. I need to point GRUB to the kernel - where exactly is it? Review the lilo config in buildit.s, but, of course, the kernel will be in a different place on your hard drive install. On tomsrtbt, it is in / of the floppy. -Tom
