Today's upgrade to the initscripts package and related packages produces this message on system startup:

"/lib/init/mount-functions.sh: line 39: cannot create temp file for here-document: Read-only file system"

I can't see anything relating to this at line 39 of the mount-functions.sh file.

This has already been reported as a bug in one or two places on the internet.

I also have no errors with kernel 3.7 from liquorix (64-bit). This makes me think though - has anyone switched to upstart or systemd on Debian? I just tried systemd in VBox and, while VBox performance is hard to measure, it booted in basically the same time (although because of VBox it isn't too accurate).

I had another distros using systemd.

Boot time check:
dmesg showed very fast response, something in th order of 14.x second, while older method is around 25-30 seconds.
However I do not really get that advantage on such a 'huge boot time reduction' because actually the desktop is ready only around 30 seconds.

Reboot issue:
then on many reboot I notice a few times it does not want to boot my desktop.
upon some discussion, I eventually return to old method sysv

on another computer, 10-yr old, most of the time it cannot cold boot.
return to sysv resolved that issue.

Not going to use systemd for a while.

I tried systemd for a while and it worked, but then an update broke it so I went back to sysv.

I tried it again somewhat recently after the update to GNOME 3.6, because Plymouth and GDM 3.6 weren't getting along with sysv as the system manager, but for some reason I failed to get a proper 3D-acceleted environment, it seems the Intel graphics driver failed to load properly and I ended up on the Gallium driver through LLVM-pipe or whatever... (Plymouth and GDM seemed to get along fine with systemd handling everything, though...) Since not having the Intel driver working wasn't going to cut it I went back to sysv and removed Plymouth instead so everything works, though I am disappointed I can't have a nice splash screen...

I will note that boot times did improve slightly with systemd, but my computer already boots relatively quickly, and I still have to wait a little while for the desktop to appear after I've logged in anyway, so the few extra seconds or so I saved really didn't matter too much.

systemd:
one and half year install broke to pieces due to a in-the-fly change to systemd (even if the change was prepared for almost 6 months)
reinstall afresh with a systemd based iso and the boot time is slightly faster but this experience made me think: if debian decides to switch to systemd (is there other option?) we gonna have serious issues in sid/testing when that happens.

I installed "systemd" and "systemd-gui" and ran as root:

Code: Select all

nano /etc/default/grub
Then I changed GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line to read the following following:

Code: Select all

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet init=/lib/systemd/systemd"
And then I ran

Code: Select all

update-grub
This was done on a fresh Debian Sid Xfce install in VBox, so I have no idea how it may play out for you, especially since others don't seem to have had such great experiences.

just for curiosity (i have no desire to try systemd this soon unless i'm forced to :lol: ) i went to check the wiki http://wiki.debian.org/systemd and it looks that it (still) has a few rough edges.

Thanks for the pointers, I've installed systemd, and it seems to be working fine so far. It reduces bootup time by a few seconds. I might be imagining things, but it also seems as though my system is a bit more responsive than before.

There's some sort of conflict between libjack0 and libjack-jackd2-0 on multi-arch -- they both provide a virtual package libjack-0.116 required to install ia32-libs (needed for this Steam game).

I had to replace uninstall libjack0 and install libjack-jackd2-0, then install libjack-jackd2-0:i386.

[Recent Debian Steam instructions are a little hard to find -- I got it running on sid with a couple packages from experimental. The critical step is removing 1:0.99.1 from the libpulse dependency in steam_latest.deb's DEBIAN/control file.]

If you can risk it, I think that's the first thing to do, and the conflict with libnspr4:i386 should go away. (I used aptitude -- it may have suggested a better resolution. EDIT: this one --)

So you basicly have libc6 installed 4 times, twice for i386 and twice for amd64. I could understand that you had 3 of the 4 packages installed, but all 4 makes little sense to me.

If you remove libc6-amd64 (and libc6-i386) you shouldn't see those issues anymore. But watch out for #699206
