It was wrong. I fixed it and our comments are out of sync 😛

It was the HTML autoformatting for the “>” character. Can you try and fix that in your startup.py example above?
Thanks for an awesome script by the way.

Hmmmm! I don’t know why, but when I copied and pasted your script above it copied “>” instead of >. Oh well it works now.
Thanks again.

I am sorry the code sections were messed up and symbols were converted to html equivalents. Try copying the code now.

I know this post is old. I just wanted to say thanks it seems to work for Fedora 11 still.
I did however get an error that I wonder if you could help me solve. In my /var/log/boot.log it says:
Executing /etc/startup.sh [ OK ]
sh: gt: command not found
sh: /dev/null: Permission denied
sh: gt: command not found
sh: /dev/null: Permission denied
Any clue??

Among other things, starting services and routing output to /dev/null isn’t a good idea.

@Adliazaddin, Bogomil
Enjoy 🙂
@Michael
Well, it would be nice if you can suggest where else to route the output?
