Hi, I noticed that on my two debian/sarge machines (ppc32 and amd64) most startscripts are ran twice. I don't know the package which this bug belongs to because the startup process is a little bit unclear to me. So I will try to explain how much I found out by now:
During the boot process, first runlevel S is entered followed by runlevel 2. The rc script in runlevel 2 should find out, that S was the previous runlevel and should not start the processes already started in S. This does not happen on my systems, because in runlevel S, the utmp file is not updated correctly. You can try out yourself by modifing inittab to boot into runlevel S. Here the command "runlevel" shows just "unknown" instead of "N S" or somthing like that. In runlevel 2, it shows "N 2" instead of "S 2". Is it just me or can anyone confirm this behavior? - marvin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
