This is the behavior of the shell. Furthermore, since you are apparently seeing something hang here, I'll bet that one of your invocations of /usr/local/bin/xuartctl is hanging somehow. If it wasn't hanging, then you'd have a very difficult time seeing this in the process table.

Re: rc script running twice ???
Two distinct copies; when I run it from the command line, it backgrounds the services I'm trying to start, and works quite well. I do know that if one runs the script twice in parallel (e.g. start a second copy before the first finishes) that they both hang and never finish. (There are also two identical copies of one of the commands in the script in the process table, hung and waiting). Everything the script runs is run as a daemon. (They do need to be started in order, though hardware init for 8 UARTS implemented in an FPGA.) --DTVZ On Thu, Jan 27, 2011 at 2:38 PM, Kyle Smith wrote: > On Thu, Jan 27, 2011 at 2:26 PM, Drew Van Zandt > wrote: > >> Debian Linux (embedded), I'm in runlevel 2, and I'm seeing this when I run >> ps aux: >> >> root 496 0.0 1.9 2808 1232 ttyS0S+ 00:00 0:00 /bin/sh >> /etc/rc2.d/S40init_xuarts start >> root 498 0.0 0.8 2808 504 ttyS0S+ 00:00 0:00 /bin/sh >> /etc/rc2.d/S40init_xuarts start >> >> S40init_xuarts is a script of mine that I just put in /etc/init.d/ and >> linked from rc2.d. >> >> Why is it running twice?

If so, it's probably because it starts with #!/bin/sh. Typically your S* scripts should exec and background whatever service you're trying to start, not stay running once the system is loaded. Otherwise ps aux would be full of S* scripts.
