try:
". /etc/profile"
as second line in the runvdr script or any other script you have trouble 
with(convert.sh e.g.).

Hmm cant confirm that, it looks more like debian sets up the init
enviroment like the root user account, which should not hurt, but im not
shure what LSB says.
At least for complex shell stuff, i do prefer redhat and mandrake, but i 
only tested against suse and turbolinux, debian is too much of a religon
to me, i just want things working :-) but who doesn't *g*.....

kind regards Onno
