Polishing Install Script
Hi All,
I've gotten help writing a script to automate my install. I have a few questions on how to make it better, my first question is if there is a way to set up a script that reboots and after logging back in continues with the script (or calls on another one even). The reason I ask is because the first step I do when I install Ubuntu (which I do way too often) is install the b43 broadcom driver. This requires a restart after and then I can do all my upgrades, installs, etc....

Here is one idea.
Turn your script in to a deamon/service. let it save a its state in a file before rebooting.
let your deamon start on boot. read the file. and continue with the stage saved in file.

sounds great, how do I do it? haha I'm a self learned programmer so I don't know a lot. Is it relatively easy to do?
