Hi, just a minute before I wanted to shutdown my Linux box...and... shutdown: /run/initctl: No such file or directory
Today I did the following ubdates Fri Mar 30 04:03:37 2018 <<< net-misc/dhcpcd-7.0.1 Fri Mar 30 04:03:41 2018 >>> net-misc/dhcpcd-7.0.2 Fri Mar 30 04:04:24 2018 <<< app-editors/nano-2.9.4 Fri Mar 30 04:04:32 2018 >>> app-editors/nano-2.9.5 Fri Mar 30 14:36:35 2018 >>> dev-python/pyyaml-3.12 Fri Mar 30 14:36:42 2018 <<< sys-apps/sysvinit-2.88-r9 Fri Mar 30 14:36:45 2018 >>> sys-apps/sysvinit-2.89 Fri Mar 30 14:36:56 2018 <<< sys-apps/portage-2.3.26 Fri Mar 30 14:37:01 2018 >>> sys-apps/portage-2.3.27 Fri Mar 30 14:37:17 2018 <<< app-portage/repoman-2.3.7 Fri Mar 30 14:37:23 2018 >>> app-portage/repoman-2.3.9 Fri Mar 30 14:37:32 2018 <<< media-radio/gpredict-2.2 Fri Mar 30 14:37:35 2018 >>> media-radio/gpredict-2.2.1 What may have killed /run/initctl ? /run has currently this content: zsh:1: no such file or directory: /sl total 68 -rw------- 1 root root 0 Mar 30 03:56 agetty.reload drwx------ 2 root root 40 Mar 30 03:55 alsasound drwx--x--- 2 root apache 40 Mar 30 03:55 apache2 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 Mar 30 03:55 apache_ssl_mutex -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Mar 30 16:40 atop.pid -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 autofs.pid ---------- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 autofs-running -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 cgred.pid srw-rw---- 1 root root 0 Mar 30 03:55 cgred.socket drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 80 Mar 30 03:55 ConsoleKit drwx------ 2 root root 40 Mar 30 03:55 cryptsetup drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 60 Mar 30 03:55 dbus -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 dbus.pid drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 80 Mar 30 21:48 dhcpcd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 dhcpcd.pid srw-rw---- 1 root root 0 Mar 30 03:55 dhcpcd.sock srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Mar 30 03:55 dhcpcd.unpriv.sock srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Mar 30 03:55 fcron.fifo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 fcron.pid ---------- 1 root root 0 Mar 30 03:55 fcron.reboot drwx------ 2 fetchmail nobody 40 Mar 30 03:55 fetchmail -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 gpm.pid drwxrwxr-x 3 root uucp 80 Mar 30 21:50 lock drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 60 Mar 30 03:55 lvm -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 lvmetad.pid -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 metalog.pid drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 Mar 30 03:55 mount drwxrwxr-x 14 root root 360 Mar 30 03:56 openrc drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 80 Mar 30 18:17 pm-utils -rw------- 1 root root 52 Mar 30 03:55 slim.auth -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 slim.pid -rw------- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 smartd.pid drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 Mar 30 03:55 smokeping -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:55 spamd.pid -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 30 03:56 sshd.pid drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 60 Mar 30 03:55 tmpfiles.d drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 180 Mar 30 18:12 udev -rw-rw-r-- 1 root utmp 4224 Mar 30 03:56 utmp The timestamps look very suspicious...
