Excerpt
Excerpt The underlying GNU/Linux base system is modified to
boot non-interactively into runlevel 5 with a working
X-Window and KDE[6] configuration, with all autodetectable
devices configured, ready to (auto-)start applications
In stage 3 of the boot process, init calls a finalizing
setup script named sysinit. In this script, the
automatic (or, if ”expert” mode was selected, manual)
hardware setup is done. hwsetup - a selfmade
tool that uses the kudzu-library [4] - detects devices,
loads all necessary driver modules for known hardware,
sets up symbolic links in /dev and writes configuration
parameters and options to the corresponding files
in /etc/sysconfig/ on the ramdisk. |
