[Christoph Anton Mitterer]

Package: initscripts
Version: 2.88dsf-13.1
Severity: important


Hi.

Having bootlogd enabled, the following happens on every boot:
INIT: version 2.88 booting
Using makefile-style concurrent boot in runlevel S.
too many loops! (loop=100001, dep->name=udev, src->name=stop-bootlogd-single)
too many loops! (loop=100001, dep->name=udev, src->name=stop-bootlogd-single)
Starting the hotpulug events dispatcher: udev
....

Cheers,
Chris.
