shutting down 5.7 on Intel: failed to write of utmpx entry
When shutting down a freshly installed version of 5.7 on a Compaq server I get two messages:
INIT: failed to write of utmpx entry: "s0" and: INIT: failed to write of utmpx entry: "fw" then I can continue with the shutdown. When I bring the system back up it has not saved any of my desktop settings that I made before shutdown. |

The errors are no big deal - more than likely the file system that the utmpx file is normally on has been dismounted for the reboot. You are getting the errors as one of the last parts before the system is down, correct?
(Something like this) Print services already stopped. The system is down. INIT: failed write of utmpx entry:"s5" INIT: failed write of utmpx entry:"of" syncing file systems... done As far as your desktop, save it, exit, log back in. No reboot is needed. |
