1.10.1 The boot.findself script
This script is invoked once the first time a clone Linux system is booted. It does not take any
action on the user ID’s S10RWMNT, S10RWTST or S10ROGLD. Note that these names are
hard-coded in the script, so if you choose different names for the ID’s you will have to modify
the code accordingly.
