Ah, I think I found it. I noticed that xend and xendomains seemed to be
terminating after killall. I looked in rc0.d and rc6.d (I''m using a
SYSV system - FC3) and there were no kill links for xend or xendomains.
I added them to run before killall and now the system reboots in a snap.
Is this safe? Have I inadvertently done something evil?
On a related note, I am temporarily in a bit of a chicken and egg
scenario. The default gateway for the dom0 is temporarily a domU
running on the dom0. Thus, the dom0 does not have access to DNS, NTP
(all on the Internet for now), etc. during boot. Thus the boot time is
very long while it waits for all the timeouts. I changed the start
order in rc3.d and rc5.d to start xend and xendomains after network but
before anything that requires Internet access. Is this safe or have I
again accidentally done evil? Thanks - John
