Hello,

It was a surprise for me to have these troubles because all other
upgrades were so smooth.

After the first reboot the system crashed when executing something
around /sbin/rc3.d/S5xxxxxx.
So I've renamed many files to let the system run correctly.

During the boot the S19nfs file complains about

function: not found

I don't know exactly what is not running

And then during S40sendmail execution several error messages :

typeset not found once
[[ not found 2 or 3 times
! not found once

nsr was not starting.with some error messages with lockf and
lock_manager

I've restarted S19nfs by stop and start and the error messages didn't
appear

I've restarted S40sendmail by restart and the error messages didn't
appear

I've restarted S94NSRstartstop after killing nsrexecd and it started
correctly.

So what has changed between D and G ? The command files have been
rewritten in ksh ? What's the problem in init level 3 so that it didn't
find many things ?

I'll try now to identify the file who cracshes the system/

Thank you for your help
