Hi.

The current source for this is in
scripts/rootdisk/prototype/etc/inittab.install
and this has
1:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure base-config </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&
So dpkg-reconfigure is invoked by init with this line in /etc/inittab
on the fresh installed base system.
If our bf-utf8 will be completed, we may need to change this
in order to invoke the bterm and run the dpkg-reconfigure on that.
So if we can use some shell script (or else) here, and write
the required process (setting appropriate variables, and invoke
the dpkg-reconfigure and base-config, or so) in it, then it will
make it easy for us to adopt the bf-utf8 some day.
How do you think ?
