+&lt;p&gt;A few days ago, parallel booting was enabled in Debian/testing.
+The feature seem to hold up pretty well, but three fairly serious
+issues are known and should be solved:
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;
+
+&lt;li&gt;The wicd package seen to
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/508289&quot;&gt;break NFS mounting and
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/581586&quot;&gt;network setup&lt;/A&gt; when
+parallel booting is enabled.  No idea why, but the wicd maintainer
+seem to be on the case.&lt;/li&gt;
+
+&lt;li&gt;The nvidia X driver seem to
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/583312&quot;&gt;have a race condition&lt;/a&gt;
+triggered more easily when parallel booting is in effect.  The
+maintainer is on the case.&lt;/li&gt;
+
+&lt;li&gt;The sysv-rc package fail to properly enable dependency based boot
+sequencing (the shutdown is broken) when old file-rc users
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/550425&quot;&gt;try to switch back&lt;/a&gt; to
+sysv-rc.  One way to solve it would be for file-rc to create
+/etc/init.d/.legacy-bootordering, and another is to try to make
+sysv-rc more robust.  Will investigate some more and probably upload a
+workaround in sysv-rc to help those trying to move from file-rc to
+sysv-rc get a working shutdown.&lt;/li&gt;
+
+&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;All in all not many surprising issues, and all of them seem
+solvable before Squeeze is released.  In addition to these there are
+some packages with bugs in their dependencies and run level settings,
+which I expect will be fixed in a reasonable time span.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you report any problems with dependencies in init.d scripts to
+the BTS, please usertag the report to get it to show up at
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=initscripts-ng-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org&quot;&gt;the
+list of usertagged bugs related to this&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

-&lt;p&gt;The last few weeks i have had the pleasure of reading a
-thought-provoking collection of essays by Cory Doctorow, on topics
-touching copyright, virtual worlds, the future of man when the
-conscience mind can be duplicated into a computer and many more. The
-book titled &quot;Content: Selected Essays on Technology, Creativity,
-Copyright, and the Future of the Future&quot; is available with few
-restrictions on the web, for example from
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://craphound.com/content/&quot;&gt;his own site&lt;/a&gt;. I read the
-epub-version from
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.feedbooks.com/book/2883&quot;&gt;feedbooks&lt;/a&gt; using
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.fbreader.org/&quot;&gt;fbreader&lt;/a&gt; and my N810. I
-strongly recommend this book.&lt;/p&gt;
