Well, let me explain then:
I'm working on a customized Debian distro, and on a replication engine
(Replicator) for machines. I would like some things to happen next time
the machine is powered on, because the people who install it would like
to have to wait the less possible.
I imagined that we would finish the installation (probably unattended)
and the system would reboot at the end (because 1/ there *is* probably a
newer kernel, and for whatever reason, 2/ GDM does not start
automatically after being installed).
I would like the system to do things in the background at next reboot,
like running prelink, scrollkeeper-rebuilddb, updatedb, ...
You get the idea...
