Summary: During boot, init looks for psplash in /usr/bin -- which
might not be mounted yet
Product: OpenMoko
Version: 2007.2
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: sysinit
AssignedTo: buglog at lists.openmoko.org
ReportedBy: cwixon at usa.net
CC: buglog at lists.openmoko.org
Consider moving psplash from /usr/bin to /sbin.
psplash is launched fairly early in the boot process, and if /usr is mounted by
init *after* that, the user is treated to a text boot rather than the splash
screen and progress bar.
Additional Details:
On my Neo, I have an ext2 partition on the MicroSD card mounted at /usr, which
is an effective way to add space for additional user programs without having to
mess around with paths.
This works pretty well, except for the aforementioned lack of the graphical
boot. After the text, it boots into X successfully and everything seems fine.
There is no hard error, but a warning does scroll by.
