   Normally this is the case, but the rootdisk image contained on the
Rescue disk has no /etc/inittab...  There's an /etc/init_tab which later
gets used for the /etc/inittab on the newly-installed system, but i dont
think it gets read when booting off the Rescue disk.

   Does anyone know how /Install/dinstall gets run?
