If I understand this issue correctly, the current situation is that you have to choose between: a) concurrent boot b) ability to use CTRL-C safely If that's true, then for the squeeze release, we could choose simply to document this limitation prominently and tag this bug as squeeze-can-defer. Alternatively, could the code be changed slightly to ignore CTRL-C if, and only if, the boot is concurrent? That would remove the possibility of creating an unusable system at boot time. I had a short look at the code but I don't think I could propose a patch quickly. Also: it would be nice if CONCURRENCY were documented in manpage rcS(5). Thoughts? -Steve
