Hello everyone,
Question about an upstart sh script:
http://www.codewhirl.com/2011/10/ubuntu-11-10-waiting-up-to-60-more-seconds-for-network-configuration/
The hardcoded sleep 60 is awful. I'd like to write a patch adding a feature to
allow aborting the wait.
Is there any sh command to wait and at the same time break if ESC, ctrl + c or
any other key is pressed?
I tried with 'read', but while booting (upstart) does not seem not to use the
console (command ignored).
Cheers,
proper
