Description Harshavardhana 2009-12-17 22:51:03 UTC
./configure --with-mountutildir=DIR --with-initdir=DIR can be specified to install
to a seperate directory.

Comment 1 Hraban Luyat 2009-12-18 01:46:01 UTC
When compiling from source with a custom --prefix=... directory, make install tries to copy files to /etc/init.d and /sbin, without that prefix. This is unexpected behavior and requires one to edit those two Makefiles after every ./configure.
