This is frustrating, it failed absolutely on the last 3 reboots. I put that echo in S98wine, S99anacron, S99 firstboot and S99local, and while init is still visible in a pstree output, that file looks like this: 2563 so far so good, start of wine 2563 so far so good, end of wine startup 2571 so far so good, start of anacron 2571 so far so good, end of anacron 2581 so far so good, start of firstboot 2581 so far so good, firstboot should exit here 2588 so far so good, start of rc.local >to see if it is started at all and then hangs or exits somewhere. > >Davide Bolcioni -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
