Hi! Earlier today, I did a »apt-get dist-upgrade«, including sysvinit 2.88dsf-38, which I found hanging at the configuration stage after unpacking, due to »pidof /sbin/init« hanging. I killed the latter and package configuration resumed: sysvinit: creating /run/initctl sysvinit: restarting...init: timeout opening/writing control channel /run/initctl .init: timeout opening/writing control channel /run/initctl .init: timeout opening/writing control channel /run/initctl .init: timeout opening/writing control channel /run/initctl .init: timeout opening/writing control channel /run/initctl .init: timeout opening/writing control channel /run/initctl .init: timeout opening/writing control channel /run/initctl .init: timeout opening/writing control channel /run/initctl failed.

I killed that fsck process, early enough before it could do any harm, as it seems. No idea if that all has just been a peculiarity of my system, though. Grüße, Thomas
