Haven't found that warning in over 7 years' worth of console logs, and
I'm a good candidate for running the oldest userland in existence for m68k.

Time to let it go.

The warning is printed when using filesys-ELF-2.0.x-1400K-2.gz,
which is a very old ramdisk from right after the m68k a.out to ELF
transition:

    warning: process `update' used the obsolete bdflush system call
    Fix your initscripts?

I still boot it, once in a while.

OK; you take the cake. That ramdisk came to mind when I thought about 
where I'd last seen bdflush, but I've not used it in ages (not sure 14 
MB are enough for that).

The question then is - will bdflush fail gracefully, or spin retrying 
the syscall?

Cheers,

	Michael
