Hey guys, how do I get bash to run .bash_profile?  I'm looking at my 
startup, and I'm trying to figure out why when I set my inittab to 
load:  /bin/bash instead of a "getty".  When it spawn's by bash session, 
it doesn't load my .bash_profile.  Is there a way I can load a bash 
shell and have it subsequently execute my .bash_profile?

Alternatively, is there a way to get a getty to log in automatically (on 
slackware!).  For some reason, I can't get slackware to use the 
mingetty+autologin patch/binary.  I was able to get it to work on RhAT, 
but not on Slack8.

Preferably, I'd like to skip "getty" altogether...


Thanks!
