So now I'm thinking, since I've done this li'l exercise, is there an easier way (using current releases of Hijack, et. al.)? Would a shell installer-type script do the trick? Maybe tie all of this into one script that you drop into preinit, have it run after the mount is finished, and let it do the rest (including adjusting files and whatnot). Worth doing? Maybe there's an easier way and I've just been hallucinating all this time? <LOL>
