Hello,
I must have messed something up. Maybe I turned off some system service that I need ?
/etc/rc.d/rc.local on Fedora Core 3 (2.6.9-1.667) won't run at all on a new machine. It has 755 permission, after being loaded from another machine. I've used the same file on other machines of the same distro, and all is well. Linux boots and runs without errors. I know rc.local is not running because it has a line to pipe dmesg to a file, and the file is not being created.
What log file records all of the steps during booting, including the running of rc.local ? I looked in boot.log on other machines, and I don't see anything about the execution of rc.local.
What would prevent rc.local from running, or what should invoke it but maybe isn't, and how do I fix it ?
Thank you in advance for your help.
