It's not really misleading (the command _isn't_ there, because the filesystem doesn't exist yet), and not really possible to do anything else. How's it supposed to display any other message? Do you want the kernel to go 'find'ing through the contents of all present-yet-currently-unmounted partitions every time it fails to find a command, just on the off-chance it's living in one of those instead? The correct fix for this is simply to move setlocale to /bin; anything that may be required to run during boot should be in /bin not /usr/bin. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
