Login manager
(1/1)
keithclark:
I've just installed TinyCore into a VirtualBox for the first time and am really enjoying the experience, thanks!
Now, I've created a regular user account for myself with 'adduser' but how to I login to this account at bootup? Is there a login manager to install?

curaga:
The bootcode "noautologin" will disable the automatic start, and instead show a login prompt.
keithclark:
Ah, when I reboot, the user disappears along with his home directory. I guess I really don't understand how this distro works yet.
gerald_clark:
That is how TC is supposed to work. Fresh install every time.
If you make changes, you have to back them up.
Edit /opt/.filetool.lst
Change 'home/tc' to 'home'
and add the following 4 lines:
etc/passwd
etc/group
etc/shadow
etc/gshadow
Then do a backup.
On the next boot, your changes will be restored.
