Topic: how to remove FreeLSS from startup (solved)

As I am still playing with my Raspberry Pi I want to turn off the run at startup function that I invoked by running the command:
$ make startup 
as described on the Github FreeLSS site.

I don't want to remove FreeLSS - just the auto run on startup.

Update:
I searched long and hard and finally figured this out for myself - this is the way I did it - not sure if its 100% correct but it worked for me:

The file I found I needed to get rid of is called freelss in the /etc/init.d folder
1st I copied the file to somewhere else to be able to fix any screwups...
In terminal I navigated to the /etc/init.d folder
and once there I typed "sudo rm freelss"
Seems to have killed the automatic startup of freelss while still letting me run it from the terminal

Re: how to remove FreeLSS from startup (solved)

If you wanted to disable running it at startup temporarily, you can type the following command.

sudo update-rc.d freelss remove

To reenable, type this below.

sudo update-rc.d freelss defaults
