I never had that error, but I had other rc.local problems which led me to do this: /etc/rc.d/rc.local just looks like: /usr/bin/at -M now <<'HERE' > /dev/null 2>&1 /etc/rc.d/the-real-rc.local HERE touch /var/lock/subsys/local Then /etc/rc.d/the-real-rc.local has all the stuff I used to put in rc.local itself. This starts everything outside the control of systemd, so it doesn't know what started and can't make any dreadful assumptions about what it should do with it. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
