This is the most annoying error and for some reason I get it all the time when I reboot my Gentoo servers. I have no idea why since I always execute a proper reboot and my times are all synchronized with a time server. Its a small fix and this will be a short article but its so annoying I decided to make a quick post on it.
The problem is that /etc/conf.d and /etc/init.d had no timestamp.
When this happens simply execute this command string as root:
- touch /etc/{conf.d,init.d}/*; touch /etc/rc.conf
# touch /etc/{conf.d,init.d}/*
# touch /etc/rc.conf
#reboot
bye
thx (:
