Let's do this the other way around: provide concrete examples that using commands from the /usr hierarchy without first ensuring that $remote_fs is mounted is perfectly safe. Also demonstrate how some of those scripts can be a part of $remote_fs when networking (and thus mounting of remote filesystems) only happens later during rc2, and yet we are talking about scripts shipped as a part of sysvinit, which exist within rcS. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
