reads its configuration from many files. |
|
|
|
|
The first configuration file is |
|
|
|
|
.BI settings.conf |
|
|
|
|
which is located in one of the configuration locations. |
|
|
|
|
When started with \fB\-d\fR |
|
|
|
|
.B calamares |
|
|
|
|
looks in the current directory for a settings file. |
|
|
|
|
When started with \fB\-X\fR |
|
|
|
|
.B calamares |
|
|
|
|
looks in the directories specified by |
|
|
|
|
.BI XDG_CONFIG_DIRS |
|
|
|
|
for a settings file. |
|
|
|
|
If no settings file is found elsewhere, |
|
|
|
|
.B calamares |
|
|
|
|
looks in pre-configured directories like |
|
|
|
|
.BI /etc |
|
|

|
\fB\fR. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The contents of the |
|
|
|
|
.BI settings.conf |
|
|
|
|
file dictate where other configuration files are located, and |
|
|
|
|
which configuration files are used. |

The command-line arguments for |
|
|
|
|
.B calamares |
|
|
|
|
are primarily for developers convenience and should not be needed |
|
|
|
|
in nearly any situation in which |
|
|
|
|
.B calamares |
|
|
|
|
is deployed. Most live CD environments and OEM installations should |
|
|
|
|
have installed configuration files in their correct system-wide locations. |
