    Init and network-manager

    Hi guys. I just updated from 9.04 to 9.10 (it's a long story, and I still can't go beyond 2.30).

    The update got rid of WICD, which is what I used and installed network-manager. Network-manager was not working at all, so I uninstalled it again and installed WICD. I could connect perfectly and had no problems.

    However, now the computer hangs during boot, saying that init can't start network-manager. I assume that something went wrong during the uninstalling process, since it wasn't updated.

    This is the message:

    init: Failed to spawn network-manager main process: unable to execute: No such file or directory.

    So how do I update it or manually change it so it stops requesting network-manager?

    Thank you in advance

    OK, if I can get past the boot-up, I'll try that.

    No. Can't. I tried with an older kernel, and made to X, but it broke down right away.

    Here's something else:

    Warning: unable to find a suitable fs in /proc/mounts, is it mounted?
    Use --subdomainsfs to override.
