sulogin timeout, in /etc/init.d/checkroot
Now that we're using rcS.d rather than /etc/init.d/boot, I've noticed some different behavior from 'sulogin'. I have SULOGIN=yes, so I have a chance to go single-user on reboot. However, the timeout does not work! If I reboot the machine, I must physically hit ^D to continue the boot, no matter what the timeout is set to in /etc/init.d/rootcheck. For now, I've set SULOGIN=no, but I liked the old way better. Anyone else had trouble with this, or is it just me? BTW, I've been running hamm for a month or so now; I try to update at least weekly. -- Nathan Norman MidcoNet - 410 South Phillips Avenue - Sioux Falls, SD 57104 phone: (605) 334-4454 fax: (605) 335-1173 mailto://[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.midco.net PGP Key ID: 0xA33B86E9 - Public key available at keyservers PGP Key fingerprint: CE03 10AF 3281 1858 9D32 C2AB 936D C472 -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

It's a bug in init caused by different signal behaviour in libc6, it doesn't have anything to do with /etc/rcS.d I'll fix it in 2.73, but I cannot release that yet because I have to clear up some conflicts with the maintainer of ``kbd'' (conflicts between our respective packages, that is :)) Mike. -- Miquel van Smoorenburg | Studying to be a technomage * [EMAIL PROTECTED] | May you live in interesting times -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
