Hi, Raphael. I tested the readahead-fedora package available from
<URL:http://alioth.debian.org/~geissert/readahead-fedora_1.4.9+090528+3d3a7c-1.dsc>,
and it seemed to work. Using it made kdm fail to start X with a
working keyboard, but I suspect that is another problem.
I noticed a bug in the debian/init.d/stop-readahead-fedora LSB header.
it should stop the readahead process in all runlevels, at least 1-5.
At the moment it only runs in runlevel 2.
I noticed the profile run was very fast. That is good. I also tried
the daily cron job, but it did not modify the files in /var/lib/.
The files to read can not live in /var/, as this is not mounted in
early boot on a system with separate /var/. This need to be fixed. I
suspect /etc/ is the only safe place to store these files.
Happy hacking,
