What's in the rc.6 directory (I can't remember where it is, but probably under /etc/rc.d or /etc/init.d)? These are the commands that are executed (in order) as runlevel 6 is entered. Do any of them report problems?
/etc/init.d/rc6.d contains only: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Mar 13 2001 S20reboot -> ../reboot I thought surely that was the problem ...only one command to execute. But then I found in the /etc/init.d README: 6 This level is used for rebooting the system. The only valid service for this level is the script reboot, which is linked into /etc/init.d/rc6.d/. The script reboot executes /etc/init.d/halt.local. Specials system issues for halt or reboot should be added there. I could not find any clue in halt.local, but then I don't do too well reading scripts. Rooting thru a lot of the scripts I am still unable to find the two lines I get before things freeze: Master Resource Control: run level 6 has been reached. Init: no more processes left in this run level If I could find the echo commands that produce these two lines I would think that could show the problem. The directories /etc/init.d and /etc/rc.d appear to be identical. Is that normal? The identical READMEs that they have, show /init.d as the subject. Many thanks. 73 ....Jack
