initng

yeah guys...any luck?

I think it's safe to assume that initng won't be getting used for a while - the devs seem to have a lot of other stuff to do right now, for example all sorts of updates.

anyway, im trying out ubuntu and couple of users have submitted a working HOWTO to get ubuntu running..lets hope arch gets it soon...i live in a *really* hot place and i fear leaving my computer on the whole day could cause it to heat up too much..so lots of restarts, unlike most archers..

Is it just me, or does Arch already boot up fast enough, especially considering that most users probably reboot once a week or less?

but, i reboot my computer every day , you think like the people in the titanic...remember the movie, don't need a boat in case of emergency because the titanic never...

(sorry for my english) :oops:

I tried initng out in Gentoo and it was really fast. I shall give it a go tomorrow in Arch. The stopping at 80% or so is normal though, oddly enough. Cheers.

does initng give you a splitscreen bootup with a login prompt on the bottom and your bootup on the top?

I think not!

phear my boot scripts (screen rocks)

Well, I tried it and the errors with tty keep it from making the system become useful. So I will look into the scripts and see if I can fix that.

ganja_guru · 2005-06-28 18:27:37

hey iphitus, i phear your boot scripts..now i want them..how about a HOWTO??

Dalius · 2005-06-28 18:57:11

@iphitus you can increase the security of your splitscreen login-setup. if you add these lines to your rc.screen:
deflogin on
shell /bin/login

Just put in GDM as first deamon to start?

Why is everybody complaining about a slow bootup?

Don't see the point...

BTW, I _really_ love the command line... but it sucks without framebuffer support...
