So far I have built a slacko64 iso image with Fido available with his own 'home'. It boots fine and on shutdown nothing is changed in the routine that anyone would notice except that /home/fido is created using /root as the skeleton.
Here is a snap (click to enlarge):
What works:
What doesn't
This is only fairly initial testing.There is probably a bunch more stuff that doesn't work but much of the gui stuff (gtkdialog/xdialog) will be rectified by adding the following line to the top of the application:
[ $UID -ne 0 ] && exec sudo -A ${0} ${@}
- which just pops the "askpass" box to type the password. For simplicity, fido and root passwords are the same - entered at first shutdown on creation of fido.
So, plenty to do - most of it low level ugly stuff.
Note: this version of slacko64 is built from the woof-CE xorg branch.
