With the latest version of Fedora 16, you’ll find many core changes which definitely improves performance but it becomes difficult to understand / make things working.
Few such examples are
changing a boot sequence
Increasing Loop Devices
Now I came across another to make rc.local working.
I did not realized this when I upgraded from previous version. But when I did fresh installation, there was no rc.local.
By default there is no rc.local file created, to make it working, you’ll need to create one in /etc/rc.d & link it to /etc/
#Sample rc.local content
cat /etc/rc.d/rc.local #! /bin/sh echo "I am working rc.local" > /tmp/rc.test
Here don’t forget to mention #! /bin/sh otherwise it will not work.
change permission & create link
chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.local
ln -s /etc/rc.d/rc.local /etc/
you can verify working of rc.local after next reboot, using following command.
systemctl status rc-local.service
