Package: initng
Version: 0.5.2-1
Severity: critical
Tags: experimental
Justification: breaks the whole system


While running 'filldev', initng tries to use /usr/bin/find and
/usr/bin/expr.  Unfortunately, /usr is not yet mounted so these
commands fail.  Then 'filldev' fail, and initng eventually gives up
and offer a root login instead.

Critical severity, as the machine does not come up this way.

I have also reported this at http://forum.initng.thinktux.net

Ideas for fixes:
1. Mount /usr before trying to use it
2. Do without find and expr if possible
3. Move necessary sw into /bin, but this affects other packages
   and might not be popular.
