Description Dustin Lambert 2004-12-22 21:36:55 UTC
Anything done with rc works but spits out this error:

/sbin/runscript.sh: line 997: 27rc_type_ineed: value too great for base (error token is "27rc_type_ineed")

rc-update, init.d scripts, etc all cause this error.  Cannot find anything related to it.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Simply run /etc/init.d/[service] start

i.e. /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
Actual Results:  
root@labby dustin # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
/sbin/runscript.sh: line 997: 27rc_type_ineed: value too great for base (error
token is "27rc_type_ineed")
 * Bringing eth0 up via DHCP...                                    [ ok ]
root@labby dustin #

Expected Results:  
root@labby dustin # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
 * Bringing eth0 up via DHCP...                                    [ ok ]

try `emerge baselayout --noconfmem`, then run `etc-update`, and then see if it works

Seems to have fixed it, can you explain what this did exactly that fixed it?
