daemon_of_chaos Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) I have my /boot/config/go script modified to execute a BASH script located in /boot, which worked fine while on v6.7.2. Since upgrading to v6.8.2 I now get a "permission denied" error. The script in question is owned by root:root but does indeed only have "rw" permissions. I have executed "chmod u+x" on the script but the permissions do not change. Any pointers on what is needed in order to be able to allow the "go" script to execute my script?

JorgeB Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Instead of: /boot/your.script use bash /boot/your.script 1 Quote Link to comment
MowMdown Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) There is a security feature that doesn't allow scripts to be ran from /boot anymore. I'm not sure if @johnnie.black's method will work or not on 6.8.2 but I asked this question a while ago and my answer was you can't/shouldn't be doing that anymore.
