AFAIK RedHat uses linuxconfig or somesuch package which takes over the
booting process (ie the /etc/rc* files).  But linuxconfig can be told
not to do that.

So we can attack this problem right there -- convince the linuxconfig
people not to use their own /etc/rc* scheme, and all will be fine.
For this problem.

Have I been talking foolish things?
