Can someone help me identify what are these lines in boot.log

[lobo_tuerto]

Hi guys, I just noticed that when my Ubuntu 12.10 is booting up, there are some lines that don't have any info on it (They just say * Starting ... [OK]).

This didn't happen in 12.04 that I can recall...

Here is my boot.log, any ideas about what's going on?

But it's not the same, in yours everyline have a name for what it is starting. In mine there are several that don't have a name for _what_ they are starting.

Is it really ok?

[lobo_tuerto]

Check, for example, the last two lines of the log I posted.

[lobo_tuerto]

Could anyone post here her Ubuntu 12.10 /var/log/boot.log, please? If it's a new install, the better.

Mine is from a fresh install.

[Stonecold1995]

It's the exact same for me, although it doesn't seem to be causing any problems.
