My HD install works.
I want the ssh server to start at boot time.
So I added ssh to:
kernel /boot/linux24 root=/dev/hda2 ssh
in /boot/grub/menu.lst

But the ssh server does not start at boot time.

What am I doing wrong?

I don't think 'traditional' hd-installs parse some frugal calls..
Just add the command to start it in one of the startup files.

Ok.

I appended
/usr/sbin/sshstart
to the file
/opt/bootlocal.sh

This almost works.
Except that I have to hit Enter for it to continue after sshd has been started because it says
"Hit Return to continue."

How can I make it an unattended bootup process?
So that I may reboot it remotely, via my ssh login.
