Description Peter Kerwien 2003-08-12 14:34:43 UTC
When booting up the system from the basic CD (version see Summary), a reboot
fails with this message:

/sbin/rc: line 151: /bin/sync: No such file or directory
/sbin/rc: line 151: /bin/sync: No such file or directory
/sbin/rc: line 1: /proc/cmdline: No such file or directory
/sbin/rc: line 153: /sbin/sulogin: No such file or directory
/sbin/rc: line 6: /sbin/reboot: No such file or directory

After this message I need to disconnect the power to be able to reboot the system.

When e.g. booting from a CD created from i686-1.4-20030806-cd1.iso, it reboots
normally.

drobbins has been helping out w/ the livecd of late, so I'm adding him to make sure he's aware of the problem.

Daniel -- sorry if you already knew about this.
Comment 2 Kurt Lieber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-09-20 08:07:15 UTC
adding Azarah per his request.
Comment 3 Daniel Robbins (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-09-20 08:57:12 UTC
This should be fixed on the 20030911 CD. Have you tried it?
Comment 4 Peter Kerwien 2003-09-20 11:58:28 UTC
No, but I will download it and try.
Comment 5 Peter Kerwien 2003-09-21 09:11:40 UTC
Yes, the problem is fixed on x86-basic-1.4-20030911.iso. You can close the bug report.
Comment 6 Rainer Größlinger (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-09-21 12:21:43 UTC
I can confirm that the 20030911 basic CD fixes that problem.
Closing this bug.
