Anyway here is the problem again: I upgraded my linuxppc_2_4_devel from pre8(1.1130) to rc1(1.1157) and noticed that my syslog had problems to start: NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0. VFS: Mounted root (jffs2 filesystem). Freeing unused kernel memory: 64k init INIT: version 2.78 booting Fast boot, no file system check none on /dev/shm type shm (rw) ramfs on /tmp type ramfs (rw) ramfs on /var/run type ramfs (rw) ramfs on /tftpboot/log type ramfs (rw) Cleaning: /etc/network/ifstate. Enabling packet forwarding: done. Disable TCP/IP Explicit Congestion Notification: done. Configuring network interfaces: done. Cleaning: /tmp /var/lock /var/run.

Starting internet superserver: inetd. I then started to backout the changes between pre8 and rc1 to see where the problem was. That gave me: >> Aaargh, now I am getting it in pre8 as well.
