Hello,
I have entered a start up script named <sysinit> in the /etc/init.d
directory. I issued the command <update-rc.d sysinit start 20 2 3 4 5 .
stop 20 0 16 .> which seemed to work OK. When I restarted the computer
the changes (starting hdparm & changing the text mode screen colours with
setterm) failed to change the settings. Is there something I'm doing
wrong? Do I need a separate file for each command? Any help would be
appreciated! :-)
Here is my sysint file:
# speeds up I/O for the hard disk
/sbin/hdparm -c3 -A1 -m8 /dev/hda
# these commands change the text consoles into blue background and white
# foreground screen colours.
/usr/bin/setterm -background blue -foreground white
/usr/bin/setterm -store
