Can you give more details ? Do you mean that you want to have the system auto-login a la win98 ? Or do you mean that from a power-off state, the system boots directly to the login prompt of linux, without any user keystroke ? In this case, it depends of your bootloader I think. With yaboot, you just have to put the right options in the configuration file. Maybe you mean that you want to specify a time for the machine to boot ? I've seen some threads about that on this list some times ago. It seemed to have a link with some openfirmware commands for the PMU. I would really like to know if there have been progress on this point. Cheers, Cedric -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
