Hi:
My MatLab flexlm script fails at boot because the install script put it as the first service to start, but it needs network up. It works fine if I start it manually after the system is up.
I never realized that there seems to be no way to control the ORDER of services in the Yast|System|Runlevel Editor.
Obviously I can do it by hand by changing the symlinks, but jeez, I think this is a serious deficiency. Certainly it is very important the order in which *some* services are started.
Am I missing something? Shouldn't this be tweakable in Yast?
Not in Yast, in the script itself. Your MatLab script needs to specify the services it needs to exist before starting, then insserv will take care of ordering the startup appropriately. Look at /etc/init.d/skeleton for an explanation, basically, the Matlab script needs # Required-Start: $network In its init block.
