The actual "command line for booting" is in /boot/grub/grub.conf, but I don't think that's really what you want. There are lots of places to set up things at boot or login depending on what you want to do. In addition to /etc/modules.conf there's /etc/rc.d/rc.local, scripts in directories /etc/rc.d/init.d and /etc/profile.d, and ~/.bash_profile for per-user settings. All except /etc/modules.conf are bash shell scripts. -- Markku Kolkka markku.kolkka@koti.soon.fi -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
