Should I be concerned about these?

Full boot log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1131890/

Ubuntu 12.04 server, AMD 64bit, not headless
  • line 33-34

    Code: Select all

    Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service S01isc-dhcp-server start
    line 42

    Code: Select all

    initctl: Unknown job: S01isc-dhcp-server
    lines 45-48

    Code: Select all

    Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start S01isc-dhcp-server Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service S01mysql start
    line 52

    Code: Select all

    initctl: Unknown job: S01mysql
    There are several similar messages about "Since the script..." but below I'll just point out the lines with initctl messages:

    line 65

    Code: Select all

    initctl: Unknown job: S01nmbd
    line 71

    Code: Select all

    initctl: Unknown job: S01smbd

I believe these are warning messages and harmless. I have seen the same on my machine, but all seems to be working just fine.

I think there are something with Ubuntu, not Amahi that are still being smoothed out. I may be wrong, but I see updates frequently.
