This is what me and Miquel agreed to do, but when I tried discussing it with the current maintainer he was not very interested. > * move bootlogd before udev This is what I do on my system and it works fine, but I'd rather split mountvirtfs which is the correct solution. > As an aside, none of these solutions are robust to parallelized initscripts > -- but then neither are udev or bootlogd, period.
