Hi,

I made a not of the rc.init thing and I will fix this in the next release.
It could be that the rc.init installed by pwlconfig is not executable.
However, when rd_dialog is used to copy the filesystem to the target
device it modifies rc.init and makes it executable.

S when I tested 0.51 I never encountered this problem. I used rd_dialog to
build the target device.

TTYL,
Adi
