Is it correct that factotum is startet from boot if I have /386/bin/auth/factotum in the bootdir section of my kernel config? Man 8 boot says, that boot ask for username and password. Is it correct, that boot don't ask for a password if I have /386/bin/auth/factotum in the bootdir? What causes factotum to ask for username and password at boottime? Thanks, Matthias
