Re: [Ltib] User Device Driver Installation

My /etc/rc.d/rc.local is coming from: dist/lfs-5.1/sysconfig/sysconfig.spec.

Even though I have a merge directory:

address@hidden:~/projects/ltib$ cat config/platform/mpc5200/merge/etc/rc.d/rc.local
#!/bin/sh

# rc.local, Local initialisation tasks

mode=${1:-start}

if [ $mode = "start" ]
then
    if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.qpe -a -z "$(pidof qpe)" ]
    then
/etc/rc.d/rc.qpe &
    fi
fi

Is there anything else that takes priority over the project merge directory?

My project merge directory:
address@hidden:~/projects/ltib$ tree config/platform/mpc5200/merge
config/platform/mpc5200/merge

Hi Todd,

Yes, I forgot the merge.

All you should need to run is ./ltib, this should see the merge content
and build an rpm and install it.
