## SYNOPSIS

**update-linuxconf** **COMMAND**

## DESCRIPTION

*update-linuxconf* is a Linuxconf module for performing a couple of different setup tasks for linuxconf.

First, the askrunlevel tool can be installed on top of /sbin/init so that it can provide its own custom runlevel configuration.\
 The previous tool can be uninstalled from a system where it has been installed.\
 A custom Linuxconf /etc/rc script can be installed.\
 Again, the previous can be removed after it has been installed.\
 Finally, all Linuxconf modules can be enabled.
