This is not a clean method. I'm dissappointed.
What do you mean by "most of the levels in Kxx were already taken"?
I'm referring to master as plain hamm box. rc0.d contains these
Snn scripts:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Mar 14 13:16 S20sendsigs -> ../init.d/sendsigs*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Mar 14 13:16 S30urandom -> ../init.d/urandom*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Mar 14 13:16 S40umountfs -> ../init.d/umountfs*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Mar 14 13:16 S50mdutils.sh -> ../init.d/mdutils.sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Mar 14 13:16 S90halt -> ../init.d/halt*
rc6.d contains these:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Mar 14 13:16 S20sendsigs -> ../init.d/sendsigs*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Mar 14 13:16 S30urandom -> ../init.d/urandom*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Mar 14 13:16 S40umountfs -> ../init.d/umountfs*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Mar 14 13:16 S50mdutils.sh -> ../init.d/mdutils.sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Mar 14 13:16 S90reboot -> ../init.d/reboot*
Only urandom contains diversion between "start" and "stop".
(mdutils.sh is non-existant, it would behave different, too.)
For me it would make more sense moving the S*scripts that
need to be called with "stop" to K92..K98. I don't see that
Knn is "full".
Apart from that, why is sendsigs called _before_ all scripts
got the chance to terminate their services? This broke the
shutdown mechanism with recent file-rc installations.

Joey
