## Install
|
|
|
|
|
hlogin depends on ncursesw, panel, and pam. It also requires GNU Autotools and pkg-config.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generate autotools files:
|
|
|
|
|
``` sh
|
|
|
|
|
aclocal
|
|
|
|
|
autoheader
|
|
|
|
|
automake
|
|
|
|
|
autoconf
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configure, build, and install:
|
|
|
|
|
``` sh
|
|
|
|
|
./configure --prefix="/usr"
|
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use hlogin with agetty, add the options `-n -l /usr/bin/hlogin` to it in your inittab, like so:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` sh
|
|
|
|
|
c1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -n -l /usr/bin/hlogin 38400 tty1 linux
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
