Configuring

Create a SLiM bootscript:

cat > /etc/rc.d/init.d/slim << "EOF"
#!/bin/bash
# Begin $rc_base/init.d/slim
#
# Based on sysklogd script from LFS-3.1 and earlier.
# Written by Andrew "Weibullguy" Rowland <darowland@ieee.org>
#
# Date: 2008-06-23

. /etc/sysconfig/rc
. $rc_functions

# Read in the command arguments
case "$1" in
    start)
        boot_mesg "Starting SLiM Display Manager..."
        loadproc /usr/bin/slim -d
        ;;
    stop)
        boot_mesg "Stopping SLiM Display Manager..."
        killproc slim
        ;;
    restart)
        $0 stop
        $0 start
        ;;
    status)
        statusproc /usr/bin/slim
        ;;
    *)
        echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|status}"
        exit 1
esac

exit 0

# End $rc_base/init.d/slim
