- Edited
I necro'd a 2 year old thread, since the information was outdated and therefore didn't answer my question (how to run a command at boot).
Following the new instructions, I edited my /etc/66/rc.local and added the shebang and the line I wanted to run; I chmodded it; and then opened /etc/66/boot.conf and changed the rc.local and swap lines to "yes". Finally, I rebooted and was greeted with [Starts stage1 process...] without continuance. The kernel loaded, since REISUB still works, but I can't get any further than the beginning of stage 1.
I tried chrooting into my drive from the installer, but the root partition was different and changes didn't remain, though my home partition was as usual.
What should I do?
EDIT: the answer was not to chroot, but rather change the file directly as the installer root:
"# " indicates root
