Re: knoppix 6.0.1: rc script for run level 2

["Zvi Vered" <veredz72@gmail.com>]

Hello,

Thank you for the information.
/etc/rc2.d contains many links to scripts int /etc/init.d by default.
But non of them are executed upon boot completion and entering run level 2.

Should I change inittab for this purpose ?
Or maybe put the link to the script in rcS.d

Thanks.
