Comment 26 for bug 497299

I just installed 9.10 on a spare drive and sshd would not start on boot; finally found this downgrade upstart to fix (whew).

I noticed Jon White mentioned in comment #9 of a duplicate of this bug (500520):

> Most notably, the system is never put in a proper runlevel even though sulogin pops up and the system *appears* to be running normally.

Funny thing: who -r returns nothing in 9.10!

I installed 9.10 about 5 days ago using the alternate install CD for x86_64 on an AMD machine. Upgrades from the usual suspects applied afterward, then openssh-server installed shortly thereafter. That's when I started down this rathole.
