10 The files you're looking for are part of livecd-tools. There's a function called
11 livecd_fix_inittab() in livecd-functions.sh that rewrites the CD's inittab to
12 call the bashlogin script instead of a login process. However, I'm not sure what
13 actually calls the livecd_fix_inittab() function in the first place.
