I would like to configure my TS-7800 to set the system clock from the
RTC and activate the serial port(s) at boot time.  I've found that I
can manually do these things with these commands:

   rtc7800
   modprobe tsuart7800

However, these things need to happen automatically, without requiring
a human to log in.  I'm not sure if the linuxrc being run by the
mini-system that runs first, or if there's a more appropriate file
within the linux file system that loads second.  Under other distros,
I'd modify either rc.local or rcS, but the first doesn't exist, and
I'm not familiar enough with tslinux to know exactly how rcS is being
used (or even /which/ rcS isactuall  being -- it could the one in
/etc/default [unlikely]  or in /etc/init.d [likely]).

I've searched the group here for this info, but all of the comments
like "it is just a simple hack to the startup file" aren't helpful.  I
need comments like "edit /path/to/file and add 'xyzzy' just before
'something else'".

Can anyone assist me?  Please?
