Thanks for the pointer. Unfortunately I don't have a serial console (do you have any idea where I can get one around paris ? ). However I'll be courious to adapt your work in my setting. In particular it seems I'm just not able to lunch do pivot_root and init . this is my first attempt: ------------------ #!/bin/sh cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/md1 pvcrypt /etc/init.d/lvm2 start mount /dev/qnap/system target cd target /sbin/pivot_root . initrd exec init 2 ------------------ an you give me a basic recipie ? Something not related: does the beeper work ? I tried to use "beep" but the box doesn't beep at all... :) p -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
