I just encountered similar behaviour. panic() really needs to call "plymouth quit" before trying to do anything else. Ubuntu's initramfs-tools has a system for running scripts on panic, which Ubuntu's plymouth makes use of to do exactly this. Any chance this can be imported into Debian? It seems fairly straightforward. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
