Hi guys, I pushed a release candidate of initscripts to [testing]. I'd still like to include some man pages that Seblu is working on, but I'll be busy this weekend and next week, so I thought I'd get some feedback on this as soon as possible, even if it will not be the final release. Look out for: The timeouts for SIGTERM/SIGKILL at shutdown have been increased and the error reporting in case the timeouts are reached is improved. This should hopefully make it simpler to spot any problems with processes not being properly killed before shutdown. Such problems have been reported, but I have not managed to reproduce them. CHANGES ------------- Deprecation: * We'll complain if /usr is on a separate mount point and has not been mounted by the initramfs (mkinitcpio does not yet support this, but there are patches available) Features: * We load fragments from sysctl.d in addition to the sysctl.conf file * rc.d is can now filter the output in a nice way * We pivot into a shutdown ramfs if it exists in /run/initramfs (this is mostly for testing purposes as mkinitcpio still does not support this) Towards read only /etc: * /etc/profile.d/locale.sh is now a static file, rather than being generated on every boot (this means we need to use -f when updating) * /etc/localtime may now be a symlink, and is not written to unless it is necessary. Cheers, Tom
