Yes. I had this problem, because I had a directory "/etc/init.d". I deleted the directory which contained nothing, and then installed initscripts. initscripts then made a symbolic link from /etc/init.d to /etc/rc.d/init.d -- - Antony Suter ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) "Examiner" openpgp:71ADFC87 - "And how do you store the nuclear equivalent of the universal solvent?"
Re: [Cooker] initscript update problem
Udo, it complains about an existing directory (/etc/init.d) while trying to create a symlink with the same name: do a "rm -r /etc/inet.d" (check the content of that dir first, mine was empty) it will be replaced by a symlink with the same name pointing to /etc/rc.d/init.d Hope this helps, Dirk > Hi, > if I try to update the initscript-rpm I get following errors: > > [root@mumpel RPMS]# rpm -Fvh initscripts-5.27-12mdk.i586.rpm > warning: /etc/X11/prefdm created as /etc/X11/prefdm.rpmnew > initscripts ##unpacking of archive failed on file > /etc/init. > d: cpio: unlink > > the same for the newest: > [root@mumpel RPMS]# rpm -Fvh initscripts-5.27-15mdk.i586.rpm > warning: /etc/X11/prefdm created as /etc/X11/prefdm.rpmnew > initscripts ##unpacking of archive failed on file > /etc/init. > d: cpio: unlink > > No way to install ! > What is wrong here ?
