Aha, so that is the reason why /proc/ isn't mounted. The correct fix is to move the script after S02mountkernfs, to make sure it is running after /proc/ is mounted. Please report the issue to BTS to make sure I do not forget it in the next update of the package. > - readahead improved the time needed for booting (from hitting > 'enter' on the grub command line to gdm appearing) from about 58 sec > to 53 sec. Great to hear. :) Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen _______________________________________________ initscripts-ng-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/initscripts-ng-devel
