Same here!
It stops at coldplug, so I removed coldplug from /etc/initng/system.runlevel, and no
it stops at bootmisc.
Everything starts, except for keymap, that get's an error.
I used initng-0.0.7.ebuild, I'll try it from subversion later.
I suggest an initng-svn.ebuild, if I get some time, I'll try to create one.
Great job!

You can do this with:
ng-update add daemon/gdm default |

* net/eth1 added to runlevel default
|

I have been thinking about this too, but this need som deep kernel changes, or even rewriting part of the filsystem source i think..
I do plan to let initng sens what files a processes uses on startup, and on next boot preload the files from disk to memory cache, before the dependcy for the app is up, this will improve some... I am currently working on this... |
This must be impossible without kernel hacks. The only 'program' that can record which files are opened, is the kernel. |
Are you sure ? I heard about an utility named filemon that runs fine under X and that track all file accesses in real time !
Here it is: http://www.sysinternals.com/linux/utilities.shtml
--EDIT--
I readed now that filemon does not support Kernel 2.6.
But i found strace:
http://www.liacs.nl/~wichert/strace/
Could it be useful ? |

Yeah, I found! I had to do
by hand.
It's all the same. Stops on coldplug, removing it, it stops on bootmisc.
I says bootmisc started, and done. at 88%, and stops.

Hi
This is a bug and can easely be fixed.
If you look at tty/12 you will see that keymap complains about keymap is not set in /etc/conf.d/keymap. This can be solved by updating your Gentoo system. (emerge sync && emerge system)
Another way to simply solve the problem is to remove keymaps and (consolefonts?) from /etc/initng/system.runlevel. |

None of this solved, I had to remove keymap and consolefont frmo system.runlevel. Now it works.
There isn't a sysklogd.i, before you say something, I tryied to create, but it didn't worked. =/

|

If I may suggest a wiki for this discussion?
I realize JimmyW has just been pounded with new users and it's being tested on a scale beyond the flexibility of this thread.
Personally, I am no Wiki expert, but they seem to do the trick in a pinch (at least until somebody has a chance to start on some standard documentation).
[removed link to old wiki] New wiki found at: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Initng
Great job so far, JimmyW. Best of luck.

Thanks, much better. (Never heard of Gentoo wiki.)
It's still a hacked-up page, needs formatting etc, but at least it's a starting point of organization. Please read the FAQ before posting, and please submit suggestions/solutions for the FAQ.

is it not a good idea to add to the wiki installation istructions?
Will initng support starting daemons/services only when they are really needed? e.g: cupsd when printing for the first time. (Actually that's the only idea that comes to my mind now, but probably there's others) |

Well here this mpd.i is working:
| Code: | service daemon/mpd {
depends = system/alsasound system/localmount
#provide = mpd daemon
daemon = /usr/bin/mpd
daemon_args = --no-create-db /etc/mpd.conf
}
|
feel free to blame me... |

i really look forward to see all the general distros being supported by your great work. i don't *really* want to trash my current SuSE  and set up Gentoo to be able to run initng.
kudos to the Dev. keep it up. :up: |

Maby initng wil stabilize some and, get all the basic features that is still missing.
It also depends on how other people contribute to the project, i dont have time to manage this compleate project, thats wy i released it GPL, and asking for help.

Anyone here using a wireless network card? I took a look at the net/wlan script and the startup command is just wifi-radar, which is an X program not in portage. I tried making my own script, but I can't figure out how to get iwconfig to auto select the best essid... any ideas? Great piece of software by the way, things boot really fast.
