</I>
That's interesting... I get those symlinks here :s (tho' I am running a
slightly newer udev, so perhaps the version in your initrd is to blame?)

&gt;<i> Second, on my single core system, the loop to process the things found by

</I>&gt;<i> while :; do
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i>     check_finished &amp;&amp; break
</I>&gt;<i> at which point it ended the loop, without trying to run the initqueue jobs.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I've attached a patch to fix the init script.
</I>
Interesting, but I'm not sure I fully agree with this. The initqueue is
very specifically skipped when certain circumstances are reached. There
must be a reason for this, but I'm not immediately able to say what.
I'll ask Harald.

That said, I've already written a reply to your other mail with a longer
explanation of what I think could be going on... there are a few
questions in there for you :)

&gt;<i> Would you prefer I open a new bug report for this?
</I>
Nah, no worries. I've seen it now :)
