microsoft and UEFI boot

rc_scripts

Hi list. I'm trying to use rc_script in rc.conf.local but without results. In rc.conf.local I put this: rc_scripts="clamd" but after reboot, clamd does not start. I've tried also: rc_scripts="clamd start" and clamd_flags="" but without result. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Re: microsoft and UEFI boot

This has been already explained in multiple articles, really. It looks like it's OEMs stuff. They decide whether they give the end user an option to disable secure boot or not. It's probobly the best to buy only "No OS" computers anyway. You can also support various open BIOS initiatives. Dnia

Re: rc_scripts

Hi Tomas, Yes, clamd is already running. Now i'm starting it from rc.local. Reading man pages from www.openbsd.org I get: The fourth section contains the/pkg_scripts/ variable, responsible for starting and stoppingrc.d(8)

Re: rc_scripts

Hi Vijay, I've put in my rc.conf.local, at the end of the file, this: rc_scripts="clamd" but it does not work. I've tried to start directly from /etc/rc.d/clamd start and it works. I understand where is the problem... On 09/24/2011 04:51 PM, Vijay Sankar wrote: Quoting Alessandro Baggi :

Nothing, I've also tried to use pkg_scripts="clamd" It does not work. There some place where I can find some logs error? In /var/log I don't see nothing. On 09/24/2011 05:21 PM, William Yodlowsky wrote: On 24 September 2011 at 17:23, Alessandro Baggi wrote: I've put in my rc.conf.local,

Re: microsoft and UEFI boot

Unfortunately, just a tiny percentage of sold X86 boxes is no-OS, and also dell has stopped selling linux PCs. The last "no-OS" one I bought was an HP laptop (HP 360) with suse 11 onboard. Drops within an ocean. Unless EU Commission helps, it'll be a hell of a scenery On Sat, Sep 24, 2011 at

Re: microsoft and UEFI boot

Well, yes. You're right. Apparently only EU commission can help and let me tell you that: EU is really good with those kind of regulations. It usually cares for customer's privacy and fights monopoly of particular companies. Let's hope it would make next move. Anyway, there are [still] some custom

Re: rc_scripts

Can you do a sysctl kern.version and send that to the list? May be that will help pinpoint your issue. I can confirm that rc_scripts work for me (and pkg_scripts do not) on 4.9 AMD64 from the CD Release. Quoting Alessandro Baggi : Nothing, I've also tried to use pkg_scripts="clamd" It d
