No, they support it just fine provided you make /var/run and /var/lock on the root filesystem; which all of our tools did.
About the only way to get into this situation was install Ubuntu without a separate /var, and then move it onto a separate partition later. That was sufficiently rare that it took a release or two before it was noticed (I think it was reported very very late in edgy -- which was a short release anyway, and fixed in feisty so that we made the directory underneath on shutdown). -- mountvirtfs does not mkdir /var/run and /var/lock https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173180 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
