Does it really say 'scrips' rather than 'scripts'? Googling on that error message (with the presumed typo corrected) leads me to http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=133578 as a first hit. 'dlocate scripts/local-block' finds three packages on my system: cryptsetup, lvm2, and mdadm. Results on your system may differ. I would suggest running that command on your system and investigating the resulting list of packages. > As to other suggestions: > > journactl -xb yields: That should be 'journalctl'. >> root@stretch-2nd:~# journactl -xb > testlog.txt >> bash: journactl: command not found >> root@stretch-2nd:~# > > Installed bootlogd with Synaptic. /var/log/bootlog does not exist after > multiple boots > > However, /var/log/boot contains: >> (Nothing has been logged yet.

Usually, this can be determined by 'dlocate /sbin/init', but I can't guarantee that that will hold for all systems. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
