Dear colleagues,

what about creating the following rc.d script? 

There are situations where you should modify something on a root partition, and 
console is not available; early.sh is not suitable because when it executes 
root is mounted r/o, and duplicating /etc/rc.d/root functionality in 
/etc/rc.early or invoking it from there does not seem elegant nor appropriate 
to me.

You thoughts?

Sincerely,
D.Marck                                     [DM5020, MCK-RIPE, DM3-RIPN]
