Unlike users - that daemon has ONE pupose - it runs dhcp > to broadcast to Web & find an I.S.P. (for a dynamic address, NOT a static = supplied by your service) It runs no inet interface - that is left to E.G. ifconfig There ARE other ways to CFG eth devices If the user has a bad configuration- ...

First - why create an alias for a Windows command - Esp when it may not always be desireable to be used with the option parameters of: (show hidden) and all other data ~ Also "more" is not as useful as the "less" piped command to pause screen output Second - the usefulness of an ...

Sounds like an excellent concept - (installing for selves) E3 asides not-withstanding Conversely - it is rather insouciant to assume anything - & dismiss off-handedly. when not aware VIM is highly desirable , I.E.

Hi PG Yes, that sure seems the best method, why fight or add more pre-boot functions if not needed ? Bet when Googling for info, you noted same as I - umpteen telling how to Alternately "F this or F that - not HOW those functions are configured ? That is endemic to all of Linux - lots of how-to...

Thnx for Puppy /B-B "Bkgrnd ('cept for the "sure I'm sure - but not sure of that :lol:) > It was harder to parse than Puppy init_xx bugs (for example, Better rethink that statement. It was mentioned B4 - WHY does Puppy use "own" wizardy names that are modified true CLI functions ...

the last line above my prompt is this: Looks like you have Terminated the CLI parsing at a prior point in scripts (Set debug points or run scripts through a trace utility) /etc/inittab is not needed - AFAIK , it is a SysV run level initiate standard Used after the (initrd ram boot process) has been...

Thnx - (expected as much, Damn crippled B/B) But isn't (# busybox) a command - same as typing (#bash) ? AFAIK (Echo) is also a command not a symlink (as you know, often used to test statements, print to screen ( ala "printf") Unless I misinterpreted, & you were referring only to the &q...

Yes Barry - Memtest should never have been scripted to run from within Puppy ! Knowing what it does TESTS MEMORY - the reason why should have been very obvious. BTW it functions just about the same as any P.O.S.T. pre-boot by BIOS > Reads ram - Difference - has options to read/exclude/re-run etc. A ...

Of course it will "kill" Puppy when running in RAM Memtest sooner or later will try to access the same memory range as the O/System ! The error interupt process cannot recover- either a kernel dump or freeze will occur The ABI scheduling queue cannot be user-space altered. A memory registe...

That would start the inet.d (daemon) - but not connect IF the NIC driver is boot found/loaded - (lsmod or ifconfig -a to confirm) The command is dhcp c d eth0 then connects dhcpcd simply is one way to start/stop the dhcp --> daemon. man ifconfig Majority of users now DO use dhcp - for cable or adsl ...
