Thanks for spotting the error. > Unfortunately, it is easy to do mistakes like this since there is (was?) > no way to test it. This mistake is really a technical one, not an obvious one. The only real test is to run hostapd on a real box which uses a network mounted /usr/ to see what happens. fwiw, I am running hostapd on a box that has been insserv'd, and its okay. I just do not have /usr/ on a network filesystem. > > May be something automated would help...? Not sure if it's possible > though, with all the combinations that could happen.
