Sysvinit source code / noprompt noeject bug

[abeverley]

Does anyone have the latest sysvinit-knoppix source code, or a fix for 'init' used with 3.8.2 and 3.9? The noprompt and noeject cheat codes cause the system to hang at shutdown or reboot when used with these versions.

Or, does anyone know of a workaround?

I see that the source code at http://developer.linuxtag.net/knoppix/ is not up to date, and according to Klaus himself the code is not available online at the moment (http://archives.free.net.ph/message/...bb41d3.en.html).

Or, does anyone know of a workaround?

Here's my experience with 3.8.2:
- boot: knoppix noprompt 6 - hangs on reboot
- boot: knoppix noeject 6 - works; prompts for reboot but does not eject CD
- boot: knoppix noeject noprompt 6 - hangs on reboot

Seems to be an issue with the noprompt cheatcode. What was your experience?
