I have used initng on debian for some time. I used initng 0.6.7-1 for a long time, because that was all I could get packaged for amd64 debian. (There are newer packages, but only for i386 it seems.)
This version has various problems: * fails to bring up wlan0, something "ifup wlan0" usually will do * sometimes long delays waiting for udev, but I use initng to boot *faster* * trouble with X crashing a couple of times during boot, but perhaps that is an X problem? * loadkeys always fails. Not a initng problem though. * After a handful of "ngc" commands, I get the dreaded "Error connecting to initng socket" and can't shutdown or do anything useful with ngc :-( So I finally downloaded the source for initng 0.6.10.2, and compiled it. I rebooted after "make install" and now ngc doesn't work at all. "Error connecting to initng socket" at the first try - everytime. Inability to reboot or bring up additional services makes initng useless for me. Is there a known way out of this, or will I have to look at other sysv init replacements? I liked the quick parallel startup, of initng, but I also need something that works.
