I have to boot 'read-write' and create a /fastboot to avoid fscks... Do you boot a mdk standard kernel ? then you are using devfs, but perhaps no devfsd. So devfs is mounted rw, and initscripts work. But I use a custom kernel with no support for devfs. I can switch to devfs, but perhaps many people do not like itand it should work. TIA -- J.A.

[Cooker] BROKEN boot sequence: /dev/null in ro filesystem
Hi all. After upgrading to latest cooker, I can't boot no more like before. ie: I had 'read-only' flag in lilo.conf, and everything worked. Now, the init sequence starts so spit: /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: line xxx: /dev/null: Read-only filesystem. And it is true, there are tons of > /dev/null before / is remounted rw. It blocks, I type Ctrl-C and tries to start, but fsck fails and drops me to a shell. I had to set root fs 'read-write' in lilo.conf and create a /fastboot to get a normal startup. Perhaps this works ok with devfs, and is broken in a non-devfs setup (like mine??) TIA -- J.A.
