submitted 6 hours ago by parrotgeek1 Hello everyone. I know this is my first post, but I was reverse engineering the evasi0n7 binary and found something interesting. Before loading all launch daemons, it executes in alphabetical order all scripts in /etc/rc.d. I immediately noticed this, and created a launchd.conf enabler! It just does: exec /bin/launchctl < /etc/launchd.conf It suffers from none of the timing issues that /u/saurik pointed out about MS Reload Fixer by deVbug because it runs before anything but evasi0n is loaded. You can see it on parrotgeek.net/repo and prove that it works! Also, ask @mitchlamp, he was my brave beta tester. :-D all 45 comments sorted by: best saurik SaurikIT 75 points 5 hours ago This only works on evasi0n 1.0.1 because it relies on the feature I had evad3rs add so I could solve this problem "correctly". In that light, it probably does work (it is not "dangerous" as I described the previous ones), but there is still little point in installing it because clearly a new build of Substrate would come out soon using this new feature I got from evad3rs ;P. (Which didn't happen yet as I took Christmas Eve/Day mostly as a holiday.) (This does, btw, also argue that what I should have had them do is just reactivate launchd.conf... or maybe done that in addition to the rc.d thing... I kind of thought about that a couple days later, wasn't certain if it would work, and didn't have the energy to go back and beg for a different feature. Whatever... the rc.d thing probably needed to be done someday anyway... but maybe I will try to talk to planetbeing today.)

I, for some reason, am not able to access his repo.
So I packaged the fix as described, tested it, and it works .
I take no credit for the idea. Credit goes to r/parrotgeek1.

This is the only file installed:

Code:

/etc/rc.d/S00-launchd_msfix

and it contains:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

exec /bin/launchctl < /etc/launchd.conf
