Excuse me for this but i started with pascal and my mind is formated to

There no problem but setup script is a big file and running recurcively
at startup.
Startup is long because we check each module and addon to know if we
need to start it

No, I extracted some functions to create a library. This library is
included in the
"/setup/cnf/start_custom" script.

I discribe bootstrap and what i modified.
The system bootstrap script "/etc/rc/boot"
- Create the PATH var,
- Define and mount the root device
- Ask if you want to run maint mode
- Run "/etc/rc/startup" to load startup modules
- Run "/etc/rc/addons". This script execute "setup -a addons".
Setup script will open "/setup/model/addons" file and call setup
script for each
entry in this file. This method take a long time when only some
addons needs to be
configured. My idea to solve this problem is to run a script
automaticaly generated
once time for all. This script is updated by setup script when setup
is modified.
This script configure only addons who needs to be configured.
- Run "/etc/rc/lo" to initalise loopback networking.
- Run "/etc/rc/misc
- Run "init" at level 5. The script "/etc/rc/5" execute "/etc/rc/setup"
The script "/etc/rc/setup" execute "setup -a custom".
Setup script will open "/setup/model/custom" file and call setup
script for each
entry in this file. This method take a long time when only some
module need to be
configured. My idea to solve this problem is to run a script
automaticaly generated
once time for all. This script is updated by setup script when setup
is modified.
This script configure only modules who needs to be configured.
I hope help you with this email. Have a nice day.
Philippe Corbes.
