I'm having an init problem. It panics saying that there is a segmentation violation. Oddly enough Knoppix is able to start INIT and do the various autodetection (ie. enabling USB).

This may have something to do with the fact that I am attempting to start apache and mysql from rc5.d. I'm also attempting to insert some data into the database during the bootup sequence (don't ask).

Is it possible that my init scripts are trying to write to the read-only file system (CDROM) and causing INIT to barf?
