No, I'm saying you can do that if you end Startup with i=/1  but you may 
not like the results. As a test, don't put the path= command in startup. 
Create a script either in the root directory or /dd/cmds directory and 
set attributes, attr filename e pe. The script can be anything, ex.
filename for script = /dd/cmds/path
and the Path script is:

path= /dd/cmds /d1/cmds /r0/cmds /h1/cmds
i=/1

Once you boot enter Path and the script will run. See how it affects 
your current shell. Creat some more shells and see how they perform and 
whether the path info is retained.
