[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#418445: initscripts: please mount debugfs on boot

[Bas Zoetekouw]

Package: initscripts
Version: 2.86.ds1-38
Severity: wishlist

Please mount debugfs (/sys/kernel/debug) on boot if it is available in
the kernel.  It is required for blktrace, which I'm uploading to
unstable soon (currently in experimental).  It would be great if we
could make blktrace work out of the box in a default debian system.

Thanks,
Bas.
