Hello all,
as of now, archlinux is not supported by the install-script. But it isn't too difficult to get around the distro-test :) ...
Archlinux uses bsd-style init, but - i didn't investigate a lot - seems to have it's own flavour. So edit the function GetRcdSlackware, remove the lines
for i in ${startscripts} ; do
if ! [ -x "${i}" ] ; then
ISSLACK=0
fi
done
after the ISSLACK=1
and your done.
install as usual, but libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 isn't packaged in archlinux (at least not in an official repository), so you'll have to download it with the help of the wonderful install-script.
Ullrich, thanks again for your long dedication to this project. If you care to add direct install-support for arch, i would be pleased to help with any information you would need. But i suspect i could well be the only arch+alc-user out there. Nonetheless, aside the rc.*-naming it seems quite like a slackware (init-wise) and the installation-process runs smoothly. The runlevels do lie in /etc/ and are named as follows:
rc.local rc.local.shutdown rc.multi rc.shutdown rc.single
Feel free to ask for more detailed information.
Regards
