Please do test it. CONCURRENCY=startpar give serialized output, while CONCURRENCY=shell do not. The startpar program do not handle time jumps, but as the time-shattering scripts are .sh scripts and thus sourced in sequence and not run in parallel, this work just fine. :) But I am not really satisfied with the implementation yet. I suspect it is better to rewrite init.d/rc to combine features from bootlogd and startpar to make sure the boot messages end up in the syslog and that the script output is serialized. I suspect bootlogd is implemented at the wrong level, and that it is easier to do that job for the program starting the init.d scripts. If I read the RedHat boot scripts right, that is how they do it too. _______________________________________________ initscripts-ng-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/initscripts-ng-devel
