The 'real problem' I was referring to was the use bash substitution syntax when it wasn't necessary... > Using awk is a problem because it might not be available at the time > the init script runs (there is a reason that init script can only > use programs in /bin, not in /usr/bin). Well, for some init scripts sure, however: [98]stink-foot</etc/rcS.d/>ls *sysfsutils ls: *sysfsutils: No such file or directory Seeing as you didn't have a link in rcS.d I didn't figure you cared about what was or wasn't mounted yet. (ISTR your bash substitution syntax also didn't trim leading whitespace from the component value, which may or may not be important, mine doesn't trim leading whitespace from the key, or trailing from the value, though thats easy to fix with gsub; I haven't check to see if its a real problem though.) -- Jamie Heilman http://audible.transient.net/~jamie/ "Most people wouldn't know music if it came up and bit them on the ass." -Frank Zappa -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
