No, the initscripts should create it for you. This is probably a clue to the problem you're seeing (and I'm quite curious to know what it is). /etc/init.d/mountall.sh has some code to create /run/initctl, and is responsible for mounting some tmpfs filesystems too. Do you have anything 'unusual' in /etc/fstab? Are any of the following missing from /proc/mounts? | devfs /dev devfs rw 0 0 | linprocfs /proc linprocfs rw 0 0 | /sys /sys sysfs rw 0 0 | fdescfs /dev/fd fdescfs rw 0 0 | tmpfs /run tmpfs rw,noexec,nosuid 0 0 | tmpfs /run/lock tmpfs rw,noexec,nosuid 0 0 | tmpfs /run/shm tmpfs rw,noexec,nosuid 0 0 Perhaps you could set VERBOSE=yes in /etc/default/rcS, and look for any failure messages after "Will now mount local filesystems" > ii sysv-rc 2.88dsf-53.4 all System-V-like runlevel sysvinit 2.88dsf-57 will be available in jessie in a few days, but I'm not sure if there have been any changes relevant to this. > I hope to try a clean install of "jessie" to see if it makes a difference. It would be nice to know first what caused the above issue, in case anyone else runs into it on upgrade.
