Hi folks,
After enjoy my entire evening and feeliing myself as the king of the world, I fell down from my ivory tower.
Through this forum I managed to make my DTS/DOLBY SPDIF works, set up the resolution with xconf.org but a simple annoying thing was missing: Whenever I shutdown through XBMC GUI, it just exits from it, posting the XBMC Login terminal tty1 screen, when all I wanted was to "shutdown -H -P now", for real.
Then, I decided to include a command on my rc.local autorun script
after everything done, it means, runonce xbmc, prior to exit0, I included the shutdown -H -P now line.
I´m my perception, after execute XBMC, it would perform just like an autoexec.bat, and get back to script, and really shutdown my pc. Poor NooB.
Now, it starts XBMC and immediately shutdown, as I kindly asked him to do.
Is there a way to prevent the rc.local from running (an ESC, CTRL-X, CTRL-C, Fx key), while loading so I can edit and remove this line from it ?
I´ve tried to be quicker than the boot process, logging from a remote machine, but it always wins... when I manage to log the terminal, type sudo nano /etc/rc.local ... it starts to shutdown...
Any ideas ? I really didn´t wanted to start all over again.
Cheers,
K.
