Debian :: Boot Without Starting X
Jun 3, 2015
I just installed debian 8.0.0..I installed it without "desktop-environment" during tasksel, but instead installed it with "sudo apt-get install xorg gnome-core" atferwards.I want x-win to be present but I do not want it to start during boot.
Adding "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=text" to the grub config used to work but for this new debian it does not change anything. Yes, I did do update-grub2 after editing the grub file, and I also confirmed in /var/log/messages that "text" is present with the kernel command. "sudo update-rc.d gdm3 remove" also has no effect,what I do gnome starts at boot time.

I am running Lenny, but I wanted to use a newer version of rtorrent, so I am running it via schroot. I have an init.d script from the rtorrent website that would automatically start rtorrent on boot, but now I am running rtorrent through schroot, it doesn't work anymore.I believe it may be something in my rc.# folders. I seem to remember adding a command to end all schroot sessions when shutting down the ompur, and I was thinking that it might be interfering with rtorrent starting correctly.Any tips on how I troubleshoot this? Here's a file listing of my rc2.d folder:
README S16openvpn
S20cups S20noip2
S20rtorrent S24dhcdbd S89anacron

I installed the ferm firewall with aptitude in the debian squeeze, the ferm init script is installed to the /etc/init.d and it's enabled in the /etc/default/ferm:
# configuration for /etc/init.d/ferm
# Enable the ferm init script? (i.e. run on bootup)
ENABLED=yes

I'm trying to sync my clock. I think I would like to do this by the "ntpd" daemon running. I think it should start up on boot, but it doesn't.
I have the following in my /var/log/syslog:
Jul 18 23:44:14 neo ntpd[1780]: ntpd 4.2.6p2@1.2194-o Sun Oct 17 13:45:13 UTC 2010 (1)
Jul 18 23:44:14 neo ntpd[1781]: proto: precision = 0.634 usec
Jul 18 23:44:14 neo ntpd[1781]: unable to bind to wildcard address 0.0.0.0 - another process may be running - EXITING
Jul 18 23:44:14 neo ntpdate[1194]: step time server 72.26.125.125 offset -0.505108 sec
Other posts say if ntpd and ntpdate run too close together, they cause one to think the other is locking a resource. It works to type "ntpdate pool.ntp.org" to manually update the clock. My Debian version is squeeze (6.0.2)
It works to start the ntpd daemon manually:
... sudo /etc/init.d/ntp start
... Starting NTP server: ntpd.

I am facing a problem with my AT91SAM9260 customized board. Board is almost same as the evaluation kit.
I could download the binaries ( Bootstrap-v1.16, u-boot-1.3.4, linux kernel 2.6.20) successfully to the DATAFLASH/NANDFlash in my board by using atmel SAM-BA tool with usb/serialport/jlink.
Here I describe the problem.
When I power up the board, boot strap is not jumping to U-boot location, in the normal boot sequence and board stuck with bootstrap.
But when I disconnect/connect the JTAG USB cable ( provided with SAM-BA ICE) , it's jumping to u-boot location and booting the board properly. I'm getting the same error in NAND FLASH also.
I have tried one more test case.I copied bootstrap binary at the flash location, [location which is specified for u-boot binary] instead of U-boot.bin (location: 0x8400 in dataflash), I got continous bootstrap debug messages in my console. [ So can I conclude SDRAM doesn't have any problem? ]
Bootstrap code or U-boot code ?

I can't get cups to auto-start at boot time. Running sudo cupsd manually works fine, but I don't want to have to do that every session.This seems to be affecting lots of folks. This thread claims that bug #444597 in launchpad has a solution, but I must be too stupid to see it, and the thread is closed so I can't post there.
All my rc and init files seem fine, bootsplash is off, and, of course, there are no useful boot error logs in Karmic.

I'm having a problem getting my MPD service to start during boot. This started a week or so ago. It's no big deal, just a pain. It start fine when I run the script in a terminal. I changed the start priority with update-rc.d. I occasionally get a segfault message in my syslog and messages log. Not sure what it means.

I lost power to my ubuntu box earlier today, so it didn't shut down properly. I'm now trying to start it but it keeps getting stuck at 'Starting Up' for over an hour. I've tried pressing escape to boot a different version or into recovery mode. The only difference I get is when loading a recovery mode it just puts up a flashing underscore instead of 'starting up . . .' - it still hangs there. This is a small box without a optical drive which is why I haven't tried a live CD.
I'm not really familiar with linux or boot issues.

However, many of those threads show that adding two lines to the file "/etc/network/interfaces" should solve the problem. I checked on my PC and those two lines are already there.. but CUPS still doesn't start properly on boot up...

Since a few hours I can't seem to get GNOME working. Whenever I boot my computer, I just get tty1 wanting me to log in. That works, but then I just get tty1 with a terminal... In tty7 I can see the startup checks which end with "* Checking battery state... [OK]".

Something happened to my ubuntu 10.4 - I can't see my desktop after boot. As a matter of fact, when I boot I see a message saying: Continue to wait; or press S to skip mounting, or M for manual recovery. I left it like that over night, this morning I found the logon box, typed my password and I got to an empty desktop.
I did a Ctrl-Alt-F1 and logged on there, I am looking at /etc.fstab and I see the first lines like this:
proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
# / was on /dev/sda3 during installation UUID=3538bcd0d-...
ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
I guess something is wrong right from the start, some portion of the file system is not recognized anymore (or is in the wrong place) ...

I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed on my pc with XBMC installed. It's set to boot into xbmc on start up and works fine. I also have squeezebox server (a music server for my network) installed and again don't have any trouble. I'd now like to get squeezeslave running, a client for squeezebox server so I added the following lines to /etc/init.d/local:
#!/bin/sh
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin
squeezeslave -o0 -r3 192.168.1.3 &
exit 0
This fails to start the client on boot, however if I ssh into the machine and run /etc/init.d/local it runs fine.

I would like the samba service (smb) to start on boot.
In the terminal (as root) I did:
/sbin/chkconfig smb --add
But after a reboot the samba service still doesn't start automatically. Is there something I'm doing wrong here?
-- Quick side question: Most of my experience is from debian and I'm confused as to why I have to add the /sbin path to most of my commands.

I just have installed FC 10 on a box that I will use as a router/firewall box. On the box I have three interfaces (eth0, eth0.704 (VLAN), and eth1). When the machine boots up, only eth0 and eth1 come up. If I run /etc/init.d/network restart, then eth0.704 will come up. If I add that command to rc.local, then all interfaces come up at boot.
I have the directive ONBOOT=yes in ifcfg-eth0.704. What would cause this vlan interface not to start at boot on the machine?

I am currently using FC10 on a Dell 4600 with 2GB of ram. I love Linux as it is the most stable OS around. My end goal is to have the machine boot and start the vncserver automatically, eventually using an ssh tunnel to make it secure. My main problem is the vncserver is not starting on boot, I must login as a user then it works great. the error I get is
[Code]....
Basically what happens is the vncserver fails on boot however, if I login to the Fedora box I am able to connect and I get the GDM login screen. I have read many, many posts but have not been able to get over the boot issue. I really want to make this a headless box I can put in another room so I have more room for my musical gear.

I just installed F12 from scratch and I'm facing a curious situation with dhpd. The service is enabled, but It fails to start on boot. I see the following error on /var/log/messages:
Jan 18 17:15:28 neo dhcpd: No subnet declaration for eth1 (no IPv4 addresses).

However service dhcpd start, works just fine when I login, after the system boots:

So it can't be a problem with my dhcpd.conf file.

Running 11.4 x64, I've tried everything I can think of (which is not saying a lot) but I can't get sshd started on boot. Running /etc/init.d/sshd starts the service manually with no problem but I really need it started on boot.
I can't find anything different when comparing this instance with other similar instances where sshd does start but this instance is an update from 11.3 where sshd was not enabled and the others are all clean installs where sshd was enabled during installation, if that makes any difference.

I've just renamed my Mythbuntu 9.04 machine which was running a frontend and master backend. It's now a frontend and slave backend with a different machine name. All is working in that the connection between slave and master backend functions without problems. However, the mythbackend on the slave will not start on boot - I have to start it manually from the terminal. In addition, the power button on the machine will not shutdown the machine any more - I can only shut it down from the terminal.

Since I have not gotten anything on the "General Help" I am posting this here: When a Ubuntu 10.10 I have starts up apache2, MySQL and postfix start properly but bind9 doesn't. Once booted is I run 'sudo /etc/init.d/bind9 start' it starts. The only thing odd on this system is I have a "inet6 v4tunnel" interface defined in my /etc/network/interfaces. From booting in the syslog there is:
Code:
/var/log/syslog:Feb 28 19:02:42 ubuntu named[1029]: starting BIND 9.7.1-P2 -u bind -d 9
/var/log/syslog:Feb 28 19:02:42 ubuntu named[1029]: built with '--prefix=/usr' '--mandir=/usr/share/man' '--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--sysconfdir=/etc/bind'
[code]....
Even with the bind debug level at set at 90 I do not get any more in the logs that what I posted before. The lack of errors in the logs is giving me no idea where to start. I commented out the IPv6 tunnel interface and rebooted and still no help. bind still is not starting at boot. OK, it is not a permissions issue, I have changed the config and zone files to be owned by bind:bind, root:bind, root:root and bind:root and it has made no difference. Doing a fresh install on a Virtual Box VM and configure it in a similar manner bind9 starts normally. (I am almost to the point where I will rebuild the box)

I recently installed Vortexbox, which includes fedora release 14.Got everything working, but could not access the network. After a bit of searching, found that "ifup eth0" activated the interface.To do this on boot, I have added this command, together with my "mount /dev/..." command in file /etc/rc.localIt works OK, but I cant help thinking there's a proper way of doing this?

So right now VNC is starting a session using :1. When I connect to that session, the terminal is logged in as root. I'd like for the terminal to be logged in as a different user as some of my end users are going to be using this and don't require such privileges. I found that I can "su" to a different user and start a new VNC daemon on :2 and when I connect to that session, the terminal is logged in as that user. What I want to do is get that to run at boot-up.
