I certainly agree with you on this, I was really just posing a quick fix for OP. I actually have a sysrescue disk in my boot partition, which I can choose from the GRUB menu when things break at home. > And the privileged shell offered here is also restricted in > that it is > only usable for the minority of 330 million people using a US > keyboard > layout, while the vast majority of 7.4 billion people NOT > using a US > keyboard layout will most probably not even manage to enter > their pass- > word :-( Personally, if I was debugging my openrc, I would probably try out rc_interactive for options 1, 2 and 3; if I was thinking of doing anything like 4, I would rather drop to a LiveCD. When things go bad, go with what you know works. ;) On another note, I don't see the "keymaps" rc-service when I use rc-status. Is there any chance it is loaded before the other services? Or alternatively, is there any way to set it as the first service that starts? Does anyone listening know? I'm just curious now. -- Regards, Roger Welsh
