I have a question, mostly irelevant but slightly is and since rc*.d is mentioned here Im gonna post here.
So here goes:
It is generally possible to remove the 'startx' command at rc*.d, well in most other distros anyway. The Problem is that im running init 5 and in rc5.d there is no script to startx. So how do I change that setting so I start in text mode? I'm using a USB embedded, running it sometimes from Windows, sometimes from Debian and sometime on my old crappy comps with no HDD's

startx is a user command, and as such shouldn't ever be in rc*.d.  All those other distros that use an automatic graphical login are just silly and wasteful :laugh:

You'll find startx  in /home/dsl/.bash_profile
