[07:41] <keesj> arekm: I think upstart has it's own fake implementation of halt/reboot that will send a mesasge to the rest of the system
[08:15] <arekm> keesj: it does that. init receives it but doesn't act properly
[08:36] <keesj> I guess you need to implement some shutdown strategy. I also use upstart on an embedded system
[09:12] <arekm> huh? the upstart should switch to runlevel 0, no "some" strategy required
[09:13] <arekm> but it doesn't do that if it gets _any_ env passed
[17:18] <keesj> arekm: that is only true is you use the backwards compatible scripts, upstart itself has no notion of runlevels , that is something from far awy in the past :p
[17:55] <ssd71> Hi, I wanted to convert a few of my custom init scripts to Upstart jobs. Should these jobs go in /etc/event.d/ or /etc/init/jobs.d/ (which doesn't exist). The "getting started" page says the latter, but all my pre-installed jobs are in the former. Is there a difference between putting jobs in event.d vs jobs.d?
=== ssd71 is now known as ssd7
[18:31] <arekm> keesj: I use scripts that are still supported by upstart
[18:41] <arekm> if that functionality is to be ignored/left buggy etc then I'll be sad :-/ (wanted to switch to upstart but can't use buggy stuff)
