Does your particular linux distro not rely on a working /etc/rc.d structure to boot? I know there is a move away from the traditional init systems (upstart, etc) but most of them still rely on legacy files in some way...
If it's not clear, you're triggering an infinitely recursive loop. /etc/rc.d points to /etc which _contains_ rc.d which points to /etc...you get the idea. To stay on topic, this could be handled better by monotone in terms of error messages (although it may be in the boost libs themselves, based on your output), but the problem lies with your setup. Hope that helps. -Ben On 5/23/07, silviu mocanu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
