Description Michael Frank 2004-06-01 20:19:07 UTC
After installing Win4Lin, `rc-update add Win4Lin default` could not find the Win4Lin rc script which is installed /etc/init.d/rc.d.

The same applies to other apps like kudzu.

My proposed fix is to the baselayout to create /etc/rc.d with a link to /etc/init.d in it:

mkdir /etc/rc.d
cd /etc/rc.d
ln -s ../init.d

or why dont you make some Gentoo compatible init scripts for those packages ?

those init scripts are not the same as a Gentoo init script ... edit them to see

i'd suggest you file a bug for each
