Title: Disabling Ctrl+alt+delete in tinycore
Post by: psamtek on June 23, 2014, 08:29:04 PM

Hi Everyone,


I have a question regarding disabling control alt delete. I have commented out the ctrlaltdel line in etc/inittab and I have added this file to the /opt/.filetool.lst as well. After the backup is run the inittab file line is still commented out but, ctrl alt delete still works, so I am very confused. Is there anything that I am missing?


Thanks,
Psamtek

That file is read before the restore is run, so you will need to do a "kill -1 1" in bootsync.sh.

"/sbin/init -q" is better way to make init reload /etc/inittab.

Is there a way to stop it from killing the shell?  With the change to to bootsync.sh it does not reboot the machine from the CLI any more so I am half way there.

I am running TC 4.7.7 I figure it will be somewhere in X11 but I can't seem to find the config file

Thanks again.

"init -q" and "kill -1 1" do exactly the same thing.

Sorry I mean stopping ctrl alt delete from killing the GUI. Also I am using Xvesa, since xorg doesn't play well with the virtualized hardware.
