[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#686531: not only NFS

Control: retitle -1 checkroot-bootclean.sh fails on read-only root
Control: found -1 2.88dsf-41

The same happens when root is on local storage but still mounted
read-only.  And this happens with wheezy version too.

In /lib/init/bootclean.sh, clean_tmp, there's a check whenever
/tmp is world-writable - maybe it's a good idea to chmod it in
the real root (since it's read-only anyway!), and so whole thing
will just work.  Or maybe creatig /tmp/.tmpfs will do the trick.
For now I think I'll go for chmod 0755 /tmp.

After upgrading to wheezy I left with /lib/init/rw directory, and
that one too causes several ugly error messages and script failures
during bootup (this can be fixed simple by deleting the dir).

Thanks,

/mjt
