I don't expect this to be problem. I've tested bootchartd with an unmounted /proc and the log_output functions would simply not log anything. As soon as /proc becomes available, the functions start logging. Also, as far as Fedora is concerned, /proc is already mounted in initrd phase (before bootchart is started). Is this not the case in Debian? -- Ziga
