Package: dash
Version: 0.5.6.1-1~exp0
Severity: important
Suddenly, after an upgrade, the system did not boot at all.
All I had was somthing like :
INIT 2.88
/bin/sh: Can't open /etc/init.d/rcS
....
/bin/sh: Can't open /etc/init.d/rc
It took me some time to guess what the problem was (I'm still not sure how I
managed to find).
Once I did dpkg-reconfigure dash and said I wanted bash as boot shell, the
system booted again.
I don't know why it suddenly didn't work. I wasn't even aware (or didn't
remember) that bash was replaced at boot time.
The error messages above are strange because /etc/init.d/rc* are world
readable, and /etc and /etc/init.d are world executable.
