I have written an init script and placed it in /etc/init.d/ directory.What I would like to know is, will the script run automatically or we need to install the script using "install_initd" command.If I have to invoke this command manullay, what will be the best place to do this ? Can I add this to "/etc/init.d/rcS" file
View 6 RepliesI've been dual booting 10.10 with Windows7 for about a month. Today is the first time I've encountered a serious problem.
This morning, nothing functioned properly after trying to open several programs. The computer seemed to be "frozen", although the mouse was working fine.
I decided to reboot, but then encountered an even bigger problem.
It failed to boot and got this message: no init found. try passing init= bootarg
The problem now is that it requires a Live CD session and I keep getting this: GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (0)
In case it matters, I didn't install 10.10 from an ISO, I just upgraded from 10.04.
Ubuntu 9.10 will not boot! System froze this morning, I restarted and it is now failing to boot. Starts loading grub and I get this message:
mount: mounting /dev/disk/by-uuid/04aa3697-7bc0-45b5-b86a-77a1e6534bd5 on /root failed: invalid argument

I booted with 9.04 LiveCD discovered the drive could not be mounted-ran fsck -ln and it told me the drive has no valid partition table. I have had intermittent problems mounting flash drives before this, so I'm kind of worried it might be a hardware issue.Also have files on that drive I would rather not lose, so reinstalling is hopefully a last resort.
me the difference between /etc/init.d scripts and /etc/init.d/rc?.d scripts.

While I was using my computer a few days ago, the terminal stopped working properly, so I tried to reboot, and when it started up again it wouldn't boot and said "no init found. try passing init=bootarg"
This has happened twice before, so I really need to figure out what keeps happening, otherwise I can't continue to use linux. i reinstalled both times before. i think that this is caused by a process that prevents me from using the hard drive, because when I try to check the disk in the terminal or in gparted, it says Device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sda1. Filesystem mounted or opened exclusively by another program?
Also, in the disk utility, in the lower right corner of the filesystem it has a spinning "loading wheel".(i'm not sure if that means anything)
I am using ubuntu 10.10, but am not sure what kernel I am using, but i tried a few different kernel options(there's three of them at start up). safe mode does not work either.
Im am building a Linux distro. It will be very tiny and fast.
I only have a minimal linuxkernel (bzImage) who is 1,2 mb big. And then I have Busybox who is 174,6 kb big.
The commands in busybox is: cd, ls, mkdir, rmdir, wget, httpd, clear, rm, poweroff, halt, reboot, fdisk, mount, umount, free, and cp.
When I compiled the kernel i use initramfs/initrd function and point it to a folder where initrd/initramfs source is.
The kernel works OK with others initramfs/initrd files. But not with my own.
Quote:
Here is how the end of the kernelcomplie look like.
Quote:
Here is my init file who is the initrd/initramfs source.
Quote:
The initramfs folder contains "bin" (folder) and "init" a file. No more.
The problem is that the kernel cannot find/read init file.
This is my first init script, so far, it atleast starts the daemon but it fails at creating a pid, so later on I can use to, to either stop it or reload it. Here's the current code: Further more, the script returns ok that it started the pid, when in fact, the pid fails in the background, this script needs MUCH improvement, some help would be nice to fix this script. :/
Code:
#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: znc
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6

I have an a script in /etc/rc.d/init.d script that I would like to start and stop my sample application. I have named my script "foo", then I can start running my application my typing $ foo start but this does not return [OK] like other scripts do and does not return to shell prompt. My application is basically like this
int main()
{
do {
printf("Hi
");
sleep(1);
} while (1);
}
What is missing from my application that prevents from returning the shell prompt?
I have an initscript that behaves slightly differently in the UK than it does in the US. Not a huge issue, but I'd like to know why and how to fix it. I imagine it has something to do with localization, but I'm at a loss as to what it could be, as it's just bash.
in the UK:
Code:

I have a project in which many processes run. p1,p2,p3.
->There are some .so files are included in some process when needed example ppp.so in process p1 (when ppp is needed and will go like a plugin) but it has a init () function how a process includes a init() function ?
->process p1 has main function i.e main()
->so evry process has main() right ?
what is the difference between init () and main () functoins. where is init () used and how many init() a process van have ?
I'm running a Debian based Linux compiled for ARM9 hardware. I am trying to auto start a process on bootup but occasionally I find that my startup script becomes empty (i.e. the file still exists but has not data). The script is located in /etc/init.d/S91-sercom
Here's the script:

View 1 Replies View RelatedLately I've been trying to install the Nvidia Cuda driver for Linux.In order to do this, I have to tun a .run file. When I run it in the console, It says that I can't install when running the X server. So I try to use "init 3".When I type it, and hit enter, the screen goes black, no blinky cursor thing, just a frozen black screen. I followed one of the nvidia tutorials on here to get the normal nvidia driver, and it worked successfully.Before I installed the nvidia driver, when I would use "init 3" I would get a colourful console window with random coloured blocks of random lettering. It seems that installing the nvidia form the tutorial turned this into a black screen.

/etc/init.d/ntpd - the NTP daemon
/etc/init.d/ntpdate - what is this ? and what is the relation between the 2 services?
I mean... if there is ntpd to do all the clock sync, what is ntpdate's role?
ow Debian init system is organized actually (btw i am using stretch) ? I see systemd installed, with some services run from it (systemctl shows a small list), but at the same, i still see /etc/init.d full of traditional init scripts.

im just stating in fedora..why does i cant restart/start/stop my /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb ? actually i notice that there are no "smb" or "samba" file exist in my /etc/rc.d/init.d/ or in /etc/init.d/
and there is no smb or samba found in my /sbin/chkconfig but i have my samba installed. Im using fedora 10
This is a minor annoyance, but I'd like to know how to fix it... When starting Fedora 12 with KDE, the KDE icon is twice the size of the other icons. I figure it is easy to make it the same size as all the other icons, but I don't know how. If this seems confusing, I am referring to the screen that appears after you enter your password and before the KDE desktop appears. A set of icons appear one at a time. The KDE icon is clearly twice as large as the others.

Since I have a video card Radeon 9200 I checked the ATI issues. I am running with the radeonhd drivers as suggested. If I boot in failsafe mode, X starts with a really low definition (800x640?), but when booting normally, the system hangs again.
