Re: [Thinstation-general] RE: Help a Newbie with Install

Yep... that did the trick! Thank you again!!!

However, I now get the Thinstation splash/boot screen but I get an error:

/bin/ash: can't access tty; job control turned off

This is probably due to some misconfiguration on build.conf (or somewhere
else)... I will play around with it over the weekend. But, if anyone has any
idea on what I'm doing wrong please let me know :-)

Thanks,

-Javier
