Title:
  Scripts in /etc/rc2.d/ are not executed

Status in “sysvinit” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: sysvinit

  Since a few days/weeks, scripts in /etc/rc2.d/ (the default runlevel
  with upstart if no /etc/inittab is present) are not executed during
  the boot process.

  I noticed this because cups does not start anymore (see bug #444597),
  the cpufreq governor is still "performance" (ondemand script not
  executed), the virtualbox kernel modules are not automatically loaded,
  etc. Starting all these scripts manually works.

  I tried "startpar" and "makefile" for CONCURRENCY but no changes.

  $ ll /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf 
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1453 2009-10-14 06:51 /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf

  $ cat /etc/default/rcS 
  #
  # /etc/default/rcS
  #
  # Default settings for the scripts in /etc/rcS.d/
  #
  # For information about these variables see the rcS(5) manual page.
  #
  # This file belongs to the "initscripts" package.
