Hi, I’m also now getting messages like this: Waiting for /dev to be fully populated...done. Activating swap:swapon on /dev/nfhd8p2 swapon: /dev/nfhd8p2: insecure permissions 1660, 0660 suggested. swapon: /dev/nfhd8p2: found swap signature: version 1, page-size 4, same byte order swapon: /dev/nfhd8p2: pagesize=4096, swapsize=2037374976, devsize=2037377024 [ 15.530000] Adding 1989620k swap on /dev/nfhd8p2. Priority:-1 extents:1 across:1989620k Being a Unix user, I know of the sticky bit and that this is not problematic, but this message can cause users to worry and applies to a *default* setup of Debian (seen it on amd64 today too at work). Since people could panic about Debian being insecure by default, I urge you to change this and ignore the sticky bit in checking whether to warn. (No idea about the suid or sgid bits, but haven’t seen them yet around.) bye, //mirabilos -- [...] if maybe ext3fs wasn't a better pick, or jfs, or maybe reiserfs, oh but what about xfs, and if only i had waited until reiser4 was ready... in the be- ginning, there was ffs, and in the middle, there was ffs, and at the end, there was still ffs, and the sys admins knew it was good. :) -- Ted Unangst über *fs -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
