Package: sysv-rc
Version: 2.87dsf-8.1
Severity: normal
Hi,
When upgrading to squeeze (or installing a new squeeze), a dependency based
boot system is used (or at least is tried).
While this system has many advantage, it is a new one. Most admin does
not have knowledge of it but lots of them will have to deal with:
- pb when upgrading
- bad order due to local particularity in the installed system
- local init scripts to setup
- ...
Currently, it is very difficult to find a easy entry point with documentation
for local admin about dependency based boot system (ie doc that allows to anser
to the previously cited points).
I think that, for squeeze, /etc/init.d/README must be updated to, at least,
point to a useful documentation somewhere in /usr/share/doc
(/usr/share/doc/sysv-rc/README-dependency-boot-system.txt to be written ?)
For now, I did not find myself a useful doc about dependency based boot
system. I know I can google and look at the sources, but I would expect that
Debian provides a useful doc for admin when introducing such a big change
in the administration of the machine.
Regards,
Vincent
