Why do myconfig= and home= conflict sometimes?

[Jansi]

Have you tried: "home=scan myconfig=scan" ?? This works for me.

Nope, no success, but thanks. And no, my hypothesis that "config=" might act different than "myconfig=" failed too.

The only thing I can see different those two machines that work (i.e., in which myconfig= and home= get along together) from any other installations is that I would have stored a lot more stuff in their config files than usual -- CUPS printer stuff, root password, fixed IP addresses, etc. When I get some time, I may explore config.tbz a bit.

I mean, it works to just put the config files in another partition, but I'd prefer to have everything together and writable, and I also don't like not knowing why it works some places and not others!
