The dependency graph says that 'lighttpd' depends on networking, and
is started before the 'mountall'. However lighttpd is working
correctly.
So I wonder if removing the mountall dependency from programs that
don't necesarely need it would break anything. I mean programs taht
don't need anything besides / and /etc to be mounted on startup.
A quick look on the graph shows some candidates:
lm-sensors, urandom, cpufrequtils, smartmontools, acpi-support.

Worth trying, or the risk of breakage is too high?
Should I open separate wishlist bugs for these?


Any loops is a serious bug in the dependency information.

No loops :)

Sound like almost the correct short term solution.  It migth be be
better to copy the file into /etc/insserv/overrides/ instead, to avoid
messing with /usr/share/.

Ok


I've added such file.  I've also filed a wishlist bug against lvm2
(#426108) asking for a more long term solution with correct dependency
information in the init.d script itself.

Thanks,
Edwin
