RE: [Trinux-talk] Pakages

[Garrett, S. (SGARRETT) <SGA...@ar...>]

Vert, 

I believe bootpkg includes packages that need to be loaded early.  Try
modifying pkglist (in /trinux/tux/config directory) to include the
package(s) you want loaded automatically.

If that fails, try loading it manually with pkgadd.  

Are you booting to a floppy image or to one of the ISO's?  

I am a relative newcomer to Trinux, by the way; just trying to help.
If you discover that I am completely wrong just say so and we will both
learn.

Good luck!

This might be really stupid, but I'm going to take the
change i'm afraid, as I've spend all day looking at
it.

To load packages at boot automatically, you place them
in bootpkg right?

So I do this for dsniff, and it fails ot install. I
assume this is because it requires libdb.tgz to run
(or i assume that the reason?), so I place them both
in the bootpkg directory and it still doesn't work.

I then try to move all the packages from
/tux/trinux/pkg to bootpkg, and i get boot failure and
it keeps looping.

So then I tried copy the files to both directorys -
bootpkg and pkg which seems to work for everything
else except dsniff!

Is this just me?

and is there a better way to customise the disk that
have two copies of the packages. I aslo tried to
update the /tux/config/pkglist as well to no effect.

If I'm missing something obvious, which i'm sure I am
please let me know.

Thanks

Vert
