Hi,
after switching my system to yaird, I found that the system would not
boot properly, but instead only display "No processes left in this
runlevel.". What is particularly puzzling is that the boot process works
fine if I pass "init=/bin/sh" to the kernel and immediately type "exec
/sbin/init" into the shell I get.
I suspect there is something fishy going on with the execve() that
starts init, which gets passed on to processes spawned by it, and having
a shell before starting init sorts this out.

Version: 2.86.ds1-40
The lack of feedback lead me to conclude that this bug is either not
very important or fixed. Guessing the latter, and closing it.
If it was not fixed by the patch included in version 2.86.ds1-40, it
might be a duplicate of #508686.
Happy hacking,
