: Hi,
: After I installed RedHat 3.0.3 and kernel p207 when I reboot with
: c-a-d the system says:
: INIT: Entering runlevel: 6
: and then there comes anbout 10exp6 times the message:
: INIT: error reading initrequest
: The reboot finally works but this message comes all the time and drives me mad.
: Can anyone help me PLEASE ?!
Cannot help now, but I've exactly same problem at the moment with the
same system. I got the SysVinit sources for the RedHat christmas
surprise and the relevant line seems to be in init.c:
#if NEWINIT
/*
* We got a change runlevel request through the
* init.fifo. Process it.
*/
..
1392-/*
1393- * Read from the init FIFO. Processes like telnetd and rlogind can
1394- * ask us to create login processes on their behalf.
1395- *
1396- * FIXME: this needs to be finished.
1397- */
