I ran the commands without any problems and the disk seems to work fine, can i just remove those 2 lines from the bootmisc script until i find a better solution? or is it kind of a tactic a redneck that came from Texas Chainsaw Massacre would use? :P
Well, it is hackish, but it might be the right thing to do. Actually, what I could recommend as a debugging step is to: 1) comment out those two lines 2) reboot to single user mode (add 'single' to the kernel options at the grub prompt) 3) run the two commands manually under strace: strace -f -tt -s256 -o strace-rm-1.txt \ rm -f /tmp/.X*-lock /tmp/esrv* /tmp/kio* /tmp/jpsock.* /tmp/.fam* strace -f -tt -s256 -o strace-rm-2.txt \ rm -rf /tmp/.esd* /tmp/orbit-* /tmp/ssh-* /tmp/ksocket-* /tmp/.*-uni The strace will list all system calls that rm makes with timestamps, so you can see where the delays are coming from. Feel free to send me the strace-rm-*.txt files directly if you want another pair of eyes to look them over. -Richard -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
