Hiya,
I’m not a big fan of plug & pray, automatically detecting new hardware or
partitions that mount themselves (I end up having to find them, umount 'em
then mount 'em where I want 'em). Therefore, I was wondering what would
happen if I eschewed the modern RtP build file with diskboot in it for a
more “traditional” if you will Nto 2.0 style build file where if I don’t
specify it, it don’t happen. I understand that I’ll miss out on having
diskboot fire off a shell which runs a script that does the enumeration then
runs /etc/config/rc.whatever which checks and runs a bunch of other stuff
and so on ad infinitum (or so it seems, sometimes 
. If I want to keep it
simple where I name the disk driver and the partitions I want mounted and
spin off a script (yes, just one script, not 48 of 'em) to do the startup
as I see fit, am I going to break something that will be relied upon further
on down the line? Are there any global envirovars that I will need to set
up to keep things happy? Thoughts on why this might be a bad idea? Thanks
in advance for the input.
