The installation worked =without a flaw, but the result has a defect: =The /etc/rc file looks in /etc/rc.d for files and executes each file. =However, after installation, there appeared to be no /etc/rc.d directory, =and of course, no files there. As a result, the system does not get =properly initialized during startup. =Symptoms are simple: no update running, /u not mounted, no cron, the console =login has pid=5.. = =I looked on the distribution floppies, but couldn't find the files =there either. Since V2.2.3 is not entirely new, I expect it to be =my fault, but still can't find what I goofed... Contact SCO. This is a known bug in the installation script, and there is a fix diskette available. -- Jonathan Bayer "The time has come," the Walrus said...
