The system is ready.

The system is ready.
Does anybody know where this is held at?

[Jeff Schussele]

Hi Jeff,

I don't understand your question.
Could you rephrase, please?

Rgds,
Jeff

You've got it, Jeff - he wants to know where the phrase "the system is ready" comes from: what script, what process, etc, issues that phrase.

/sbin/rc

[Jeff Schussele]

Found it in /sbin/rc
Do a
strings /sbin/rc | grep -i ready
You'll see it.

Rgds,
Jeff

Give yourself a big tenner Jeff!

I see you found it before I did. Loved the chase though...interesting question.
Knew it would be in /sbin....

Cheers,
Jeff

Hi Jeff:

'/sbin/rc' is nothing more than a script, albeit one very important one!

Regards!

Hi Jeff,
If you're ever looking for something like that again, you can always try:

find / -type f -exec grep -l 'The system is ready' {} \;

This can use a bit of a system's resources and will take some time (it will search through every file in your filesystem for the string) but I have found it usefull on occasion.

Happy Hunting.
