 |
|
hi guys,
when booting gentoo, i get errors like this:
* Can't find service 'localmount' needed by 'hdparm'; continuing...
* Can't find service 'localmount' needed by 'vcron'; continuing...
this continues for 5 or 6 times!
any ideas how to solve that problem? |

If /etc/init.d/localmount doesn't exist, try re-emerging baselayout.

Hmm, on my system it is part of the boot runlevel.
EDIT: what version of baselayout do you have?

Runlevels are described more in the handbook part 2 chapter 5. Services are added to the boot runlevel by running | Code: | | rc-update add <service> boot |
Services in the boot runlevel are started before services in other runlevels, such as default. Now, about the baselayout version, others have had similar problems with some old baselayout version. Are you up to date? (etcat -v baselayout, requires gentoolkit)

Delete it and re-emerge baselayout, or restore it from your backup.
