[Bug 44166] Re: No NTP-Sync during bootup if /usr on different filesystem
I know it's a long time, but I'm cleaning up old NTP bugs atm. udev is there, by default for a long time - due to that the wait will work "now".

Apparently, hotplug.functions is installed by Debian version of udev since revision 141, but not by Ubuntu's version (see bug 6435 and bug 367197). -- No NTP-Sync during bootup if /usr on different filesystem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44166 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 44166] Re: No NTP-Sync during bootup if /usr on different filesystem
This is still broken in Ubuntu 9.10. I don't know what the root cause was going back to 6.06 but here is what is going on in 9.10. I can't believe the importance is low, this probably affects every single server installation. I am tempted to file a new bug as this one is so old and it looks like Ubuntu just doesn't care. ntpdate is supposed to be automatically run after a network connection is available, started by the script: /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate If /usr/ is on a separate partition from /, as most servers would do, the network can be up before non-root partitions are mounted. To deal with that, there is this section: # This is for the case that /usr will be mounted later. if [ -r /lib/udev/hotplug.functions ]; then . /lib/udev/hotplug.functions wait_for_file /usr/sbin/ntpdate-debian fi however /lib/udev/hotplug.functions does not exist, so it doesn't wait for /usr/ to be mounted, and the time never gets synced because /usr/sbin/ntpdate-debian is on the /usr/ partition which is not mounted yet. hotplug.functions does not exist in any Ubuntu package as far as I can tell, but it is in the udev package of Debian Lenny. I found some other bugs referencing /lib/udev/hotplug.functions so there is probably a bigger problem than just broken ntpdate functionality. In trying to make the boot process a few seconds faster and win over new linux users, Ubuntu has broken all sorts of functionality that the core linux audience depends on. -- No NTP-Sync during bootup if /usr on different filesystem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44166 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 44166] Re: No NTP-Sync during bootup if /usr on different filesystem
the problem is either in the ntpdate or udev package, how do we get this bug moved to the correct package? -- No NTP-Sync during bootup if /usr on different filesystem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44166 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
