1 Hi Everyone
2 Is there any easy way to have /sbin/runscript and the start-stop-daemon
3 print out some reasonable debug logs when it fails? Its really irritating to
4 see those two !! marks to say the startup failed but have no idea why it
5 failed. I had to do an strace to find out that it looks at /mnt/.init.d/ for
6 a lot of info etc. Why cant it depend on runtime information rather than
7 depend on info from the file system which could be out of date.
8 Thanks
