[08:06] <ultrav1olet> anyone alive here?
[08:06] <ultrav1olet> can anyone help me with Fedora 13 upstart? I have changed tty.conf to this: http://pastebin.ca/1858626 but no mingetty ever starts
[08:06] <ultrav1olet> Is "\" supported for breaking the lines into two?
[08:18] <plautrba> ultrav1olet: you need to have line 9 and 10 inside script ... end script
[08:19] <ultrav1olet> plautrba: in Fedora 13 this file is started by another file
[08:20] <JanC> "Line breaks within a stanza are permitted within single or double quotes, or if preceeded by a blackslash." (from the manual)
[08:20] <ultrav1olet> JanC: so, my file is OK?
[08:20] <JanC> no
[08:21] <plautrba> ultrav1olet: you cannot use just '[ "$tty" = "tty1" ]', it has to be in 'script' stanza
[08:21] <ultrav1olet> plautrba: I got it
[08:22] <ultrav1olet> so script/end script denotes bash section? :)
[08:23] <plautrba> it's executed as '/bin/sh -e -c <content of script stanza>'
[08:34] <JanC> certainly not *bash* section
[11:29] <caolanm> it seems like "start on startup" fires before my home partition is mounted in lucid, should I be waiting for some other event?
[11:29] <Keybuk> start on filesystem
[11:42] <caolanm> Keybuk: it still doesn't seem to find anything on other partitions than root (I also have encryption turned on for /home if that makes a difference)
[11:42] <Keybuk> filesystem only happens after everything in /etc/fstab is mounted
[11:42] <Keybuk> (and root is r/w)
[11:43] <caolanm> hmm
[11:44] <caolanm> the works fine if run manually once the machine has booted, but can't seem to find files when run during boot.... what is the latest possible stage in the boot process I could run a job?
[11:51] <Keybuk> caolanm: shutdown? :-)
[11:51] <Keybuk> "filesystem" is generally the last significant event
[11:51] <Keybuk> everything after that is services
[11:52] <caolanm> heh
[11:52] <caolanm> ok
[11:52] <caolanm> this is seriously confusing then
[13:29] <caolanm> Keybuk: hey, sorry to keep bugging you on this, but I'm pretty sure its related to mounting /home... if I move it to /opt (on the root partition) it works!
[13:30] <Keybuk> /home isn't boot essential in Ubuntu
[13:30] <caolanm> ah I see
[13:30] <Keybuk> add "bootwait" to the options for it in /etc/fstab
[13:31] <caolanm> I saw a bug related to that in karmic, stopping the computer from booting
[13:31] <caolanm> any idea if that was fixed for lucid? ...I'm working on a remote machine and don't want it to go down :\
[13:32] <caolanm> well, I can risk it I suppose :)
[13:34] <Keybuk> it's deliberate
[13:34] <Keybuk> lucid still won't wait for /home
[13:36]  * caolanm crosses fingers
[13:38] <caolanm> damn, it didn't come back up
[13:38] <caolanm> Keybuk: thanks for your help, I have a much better idea of what to look into now!
[20:20] <bencc> can upstart rotate logs?
[20:21] <bencc> I'm using ubuntu lucid
[20:22] <sadmac> bencc: no. You need logrotate or what have you (though upstart can certainly /run/ that program)
[21:09] <bencc> sadmac: it'll be cool if I could define it as part of my upstart script
