Next is the console script. Easiest solution is to move this after the
network script. Alexander, you are most knowledgeable with console
script. Is that acceptable or is there a requirement for it to be
before the network script? If so, then openvt, kbd_mode, and setfont
need to be moved to /bin from /usr/bin, along with anything else these
programs require in /usr. I prefer the second solution--moving the
files so that a user's locale is supported from sysinit on--but this may
be a larger change than I know about.
Consider the following situation.
1) /usr is mounted from network.
2) A user boots into non-networked runlevel 2
3) Then his non-qwerty keyboard layout is screwed
Fedora fixes this by moving data files from the kbd package to /lib/kbd, instead
of /usr/share/kbd.
However, my personal opinion about this is that "/ on disk, /usr on network"
setup is inherently broken from the maintenance viwepoint (too easy to get a
mismatch between / and /usr), and nfs-root setup is certainly preferred. If we
document that we don't support the first situation, there will be no problem
with FHS.
