[15:38] <johan> heya
[15:38] <johan> Keybuk: are you around?
[15:39] <johan> I have a two-lines patch which skips fsck on remote mounts, it's necessary for me to be able to bootup on an nfsroot using upstart 1.0 in karmic 
[15:39] <johan> The patch is here, http://pastebin.com/f4a1801a6 I'm wondering if it's the right approach
[15:39] <Keybuk> why not just put "0" in the check part of your fstab?
[15:40] <johan> I have that already
[15:40] <johan>  /dev/nfs	/	nfs	defaults,rw,nolock,tcp 0 0
[15:40] <johan> and for non-root mounts: anthem:/home	            /home	    nfs defaults,nfsvers=3,tcp,async,noatime,rw,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 0 0
[15:40] <Keybuk> they shouldn't be being checked then?
[15:41] <johan> right, but mountall hangs if I don't skip it
[15:41] <johan> it tries to remount the devices afaict, and it's not able since portmap isn't started yet
[15:43] <Keybuk> I wonder if it's the /dev/nfs thing confusing it
[15:43] <Keybuk> it probably never gets told that device name is ready
[15:43] <johan> I tried /dev/root as well
[15:44] <johan> right, I have neither /dev/root nor /dev/nfs on my udev
[16:25] <sassyn> hi
[16:25] <sassyn> can someone please help
[16:25] <sassyn> i wrote a rule under ubuntu 9.10
[16:26] <sassyn> in the init dir
[16:26] <sassyn> it basicly start a X session
[16:26] <sassyn> not GDM!
[16:26] <sassyn> now it is working
[16:27] <sassyn> but sometime after restart the X doesn't run
[16:27] <sassyn> doing restart again and X is up
[16:27] <sassyn> how Can i debug this?>
[16:30] <sadmac> sassyn: sounds like an X issue. /var/log/messages should help
[17:05] <sassyn> sadmac - says nothing
[17:05] <sassyn> it is so strage
[17:05] <sassyn> I reboot working
[17:05] <sassyn> restart not working
[17:05] <sassyn> reboot again working
[17:05] <sassyn> reboot again not working
[17:05] <sassyn> reboot again working
[17:05] <sadmac> you'll need logs from one of the times it doesn't work
[17:06] <sassyn> do u want me to send u the X init script?
[17:06] <sassyn> i'm getting crazy
[17:07] <sassyn> all the day i'm trying to debug this
[17:08] <ion> It’s not as if computers can be expected to be deterministic.
[17:09] <sadmac> sassyn: you can pastebin it if you like
[17:10] <sassyn> http://pastebin.com/dfacd31
[17:11] <sassyn> sadmac - 10x
[17:12] <sadmac> sassyn: looks ok
[17:13] <sassyn> SO WHAT CAN BE THE PROBLEM? i CONFIGURE THE XORG.CONF MYSELF
[17:13] <sassyn> IT IS WORKING
[17:13] <sassyn> IT IS NOT A PROBLEM WITH THE XCONF
[17:13] <sadmac> please don't capslock
[17:13] <sassyn> sorry
[17:14] <sadmac> try init=/sbin/init --verbose on the kernel command line
[17:16] <sassyn> OK
[17:16] <sassyn> what should i look for?
[17:17] <sassyn> this is a good thing
[17:17] <sassyn> since i didn't know how to debug the init
[17:17] <Keybuk> compare the output with it working vs. it not working
[17:17] <sadmac> ^^what he said
[17:17] <sassyn> 10x :-)
[17:17] <sassyn> really !
