Hi there all,... Anyone got any ideas on how to silence the "INIT: Entering runlevel: 2" output during system boot? I want to clean up the system boot logs (via serial console) to only include the output of my init scripts,... any suggestions? Ciao ciao Ross

Well, first of all I hope you know about the "quiet" parameter that shuts up the kernel. To silence init, you'll have to patch the source: --- sysvinit-2.86/src/init.c.orig 2007-11-13 20:59:36.778419894 -0400 +++ sysvinit-2.86/src/init.c 2007-11-13 21:00:50.756134130 -0400 @@ -2222,7 +2222,6 @@ break; } if (loglevel > 0) { - initlog(L_VB, "Entering runlevel: %c", runlevel); write_utmp_wtmp("runlevel", "~~", runlevel + 256 * oldlevel, RUN_LVL, "~"); thislevel = runlevel; prevlevel = oldlevel; Alternatively, you can try out other init alternatives (such as initng, cinit, etc), or you can just ask the king of spain for some help ;) -- Alan

If so do you mind if I use it under the same license as sysvinit?
Alternatively, you can try out other init alternatives (such as initng, cinit, etc), or you can just ask the king of spain for some help ;) I've been toying with the idea of trying other inits aswell, but I like sysvinit.

Yes I wrote it, you can do whatever you want with it. -- Alan
