Comment 77 for bug 543506

No luck. I've tried the suggested rc-sysinit.conf modifications. Tried other modifications suggested elsewhere. Tried disabling ureadahead. Tried several other things and I still get the same thing on every reboot. I haven't tried unplugging all the USB and firewire drives and/or the second network card, but since those are the main functions of this particular computer it wouldn't be a satisfactory solution for me anyway. Wiping the OS partition and reinstalling 08.04 seems like the most pain free way to go.

In the old init.d system, it was easy for me to add something like an echo or syslog message to any script to know when it was being executed. How can I do the same so I can know if /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf is even run during boot?
