An older version of /sbin/rc has "boot" instead of "sysinit" there. I changed the "boot" part ot manually execute "/sbin/rc sysinit" so it works now. I wonder why this happened to me at all. I don't reboot this box to often though IT MAY HAVE HAPPENED SINCE SHORT TIME BEFORE THE SYSTEM WANTED A COLD REBOOT FROM ME, HANGING SOMEWHERE BETWEEN NVIDIA KERNEL MODULE TVON->TVOFF Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.power down 2.power up 3.weeeee Actual Results: When the rc script comes into affect it wants to update /var/stage/init.d without remounting / rw, hasn't mounted /proc ... etc. Nothing will work, and I needed to carry an old monitor from the cellar to the server to get it running again. Luckily I had an old system on hda9 *smile* Expected Results: It should have entered the sysinit stage at si:sysinit:/sbin/rc boot no information available since nothing was running (before I fixed it).
You did not update /etc/inittab after update of baselayout. Attach your /etc/inittab.
