Well, the output is from the gentoo rc script and from the imported functions.sh script. It showed two segfaults. It occured afaikt when the dmcrypt addon is called. It uses the start-stop-daemon program. I tried taking a photo of it, but it was blurry and the flash obscured it. I backtracked all the way from the errant baselayout and until 1.11.15-r3 none of the 1.12 series of baselayouts worked. Too bad I can't get gpm to run otherwise I could capture the output. However, the only output are lines from the script with uninitialized variables -- basically the source of the scripts. No dumps, stack traces, or panics. -- Peter +++++ Do not reply to this email, it is a spam trap and not monitored. I can be reached via this list, or via jabber: pete4abw at jabber.org ICQ: 73676357
