I had assumed that it was closer to the BSD init system than it is. Clearly that's not the case. But my point still stands. If we're not going to use runlevels by default, then why install all those stupid symlinks and sysvinit by default. If runlevels are optional, than an init that makes use of them should be optional. But I highly doubt I'll ever convince anybody to consider switching to a BSD style init system... I'd probably have an easier time getting Debian to switch to .rpms... I still hate our default init system, in any case. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
