Guys, The runlevel 5 init scripts have been rearranged and now the switch to graphics mode from text mode occurs much too early hiding a majority of the boot process (samba, mysql, ntp, etc....) How can I change the time when this switch occurs so I can monitor the boot process like we have always been able to. Before it was very useful for catching errors after config changes, etc.. Now all of this is obscured and hidden from the user. Having the switch to graphics mode this early seems ridiculous. Instead of being able to monitor for errors now, you are switched into a basically 'dead' login display that is virtually non-responsive until the boot process completes anyway. It's far better to be able to actually monitors what takes place for an additional 40 seconds to a minute instead of having that part of the boot process hidden behind a non-responsive login display. (OK, sometimes you can start the login then, but things grind to a halt until the underlying boot processes complete) So how do I delay the switch until at lease past samba, ntp & mysql??? -- David C.
