Bug Description
Binary package hint: sysvinit
Since a few days/weeks, scripts in /etc/rc2.d/ (the default runlevel with upstart if no /etc/inittab is present) are not executed during the boot process.
I noticed this because cups does not start anymore (see bug #444597), the cpufreq governor is still "performance" (ondemand script not executed), the virtualbox kernel modules are not automatically loaded, etc. Starting all these scripts manually works.
I tried "startpar" and "makefile" for CONCURRENCY but no changes.
$ ll /etc/init/
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1453 2009-10-14 06:51 /etc/init/
$ cat /etc/default/rcS

I think this could be related to upstart but I don't know how to debug this.
# sudo start rc-sysinit
or
# sudo start rc
doesn't seem to help much here. Any suggestions about how to debug it?
Thank you.
