wrong. use update-rc.d, and yes, i did read the manpage. you method
fails for folks running file-rc, amongst others.

there is nothing to top you from doing the equivalent of

> # ln -s /etc/init.d/xdm /etc/rc4.d/K99xdm

with update-rc.d:

  update-rc.d xdm stop 01 0 1 6 . stop 99 2 3 4 5 .

this will not get overwritten as it does exactly what you did with all
the shell commands, except it works for all startup script management
systems, and it is The Debian Way.

yours works (for SysV), but it isn't The Debian Way, at least not with
caps...
