[vdr] Re: Start script hangs my PC

[ma.hoff@t-online.de (Martin Hoffmann)]

Mhhh, i have a similar script (much simpler - no stop/start/... functions - 
just for loading) and only difference i can see is that i used pushd / popd 
to restore the original working directory of the script after the call of 
./runvdr & 
Maybe this could be a problem !?

Otherwise try to add some echo for debugging behind the ./runvdr - maybe it 
got stuck in ./runvdr ?

Which runlevel did you use to trigger your script ?
I used rc3.d (RUNLEVEL 3 - i have no X running) and as last service S99 - 
maybe runvdr or something relies on any other service - so starting it as 
last service may be a good idea ..

Try to track down the problem by commenting out the vdradmin stuff - maybe 
this one hangs ?

I hope one of those can help you !?
