Ok, that explains why I could not find it in the source (even searching the
Makefiles did not reveal anything).

I'll flash the config as per the usual procedure with flatfsd after looking
at the config files that /bin/extract-romfs pulls out of a standard image.

Thanks for your advice again.

Richard

The start script itself is not in the snapgear source package.
The file is actually autogenerated on build - but that doesn't make
sense in the public source tree since a few of the management apps
are not GPL source.

The way to get the extra scripts and management binaries is to
take a supported SG580 binary download image from SnapGear and
run the snapgear/bin/extract-romfs tool against it. That will pull
all those files out for you.

Regards
Greg
