I also asked this at http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/36797/readonly-on-boot-but-dont-see-why-how-to-investigate-and-fix and didn't get an answer, but was prompted enough by questions to maybe have figured it out; at least / now is mounted rw at root. I think the problem was that the /etc/rcS.d/07checkroot.sh symbolic link to /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh was missing. I have no idea how; don't see a related bug report. I'm curious if anyone knows. I'm also curious what actually does determine boot order as of wheezy currently. I see the dependency annotations in /etc/init.d scripts, and what I guess is a rendering of those in /etc/init.d/.depend.* (and those files were also recently updated; does insserv do that? I ran it thinking it'd give me command line options), but also the /etc/rc* stuff. Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
