Package: chkconfig
Version: 11.0-79.1-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
For when the distribution installation isn't on '/' (e.g. network or a
different partition), It could be useful to have chkconfig an option to use the
different root.
e.g. to check the services on /mnt/sda3 one could do:
/mnt/sda3/sbin/chkconfig --root=/mnt/sda3 --list
This is basically the same as sysv-rc-conf's "--root" option (I think).
Attached is a patch that seems to do the trick.
