Re: [Astlinux-users] How to set PATH?

[Lonnie A. <li...@lo...>]

Hi David,

Since you build your own images, look at the first 'for' line in /etc/profile, add your /mnt/kd/bin path to:

https://github.com/astlinux-project/astlinux/blob/master/project/astlinux/target_skeleton/etc/profile

For those who don't build their own images, or just want to keep things 'clean', look at the end of the same /etc/profile where ~/.bashrc gets sourced if it exists.  For a 'root' user you need a persistent /mnt/kd/root directory or use rc.local to populate /root/.bashrc with
--
export PATH="/mnt/kd/bin:$PATH"
--
