I remember needing a custom profile for something about 18 months ago. I |
| 13 |
don't have that machine any more, but I'm sure I put it in my personal |
| 14 |
overlay and it worked just fine. There's nothing special about a |
| 15 |
profile, it's just a directory with standard files in it and parent |
| 16 |
profiles. If you recreate it or get the old one out of an archive, |
| 17 |
store it any old arb place you feel like and symlink make.profile to it |
