So it turns out that mdz hijacked an unrelated bug; sorry zigi, your bug that getty is started before rc.local is still valid :p
I've opened bug 98955 to track the logd problem ** Summary changed: - Starting of the getty + getty started before rc.local -- getty started before rc.local https://launchpad.net/bugs/75830 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
