Right. Then I understand what happened. The insserv call reordered the boot and shutdown scripts but the migration was not done as it was intended by the package scripts of sysv-rc or insserv (depending on version), so the shutdown sequences became wrong. Where did you read that you should run insserv manually? I ask because I want to track down and update any inaccurate documentation. > I've now run dpkg-reconfigure -plow sysv-rc and it has activated dependency > based boot and renamed the links in rc0.d Good. > The issue with X/kdm remains: it is started on boot and I see the > nvidia logo appear but then I get the console again and X is no > longer running.

I would guess some related init.d script is missing start dependencies, but it is hard to give a more concrete proposal without the output from 'ls /etc/rcS.d /etc/rc2.d'.
