Ok, Norberto. Looks like the (or, a) problem is initctl. The named |
| 15 |
pipe is missing...or is it supposed to be created during boot? I got |
| 16 |
the info below after 'chrooting' from a livecd boot. I don't know what |
| 17 |
the pipe is for, so time to start reading. But I wanted to get this |
| 18 |
posted soon as I could. |
