It /should/ all be contained within update-rc.d. The file-rc version of update-rc.d takes its defaults from "/sbin/insserv -s". Looking more closely, this is from the files in /etc/init.d, but will also use the rc?.d links as well if present. So if the links are deleted, you'll just get the defaults from the scripts, I think. So maybe what's missing is a call to insserv to recreate the default links, or to create the links and run insserv to correctly reorder them in dependency order. The old link recreation behaviour used the pre-insserv static ordering IIRC, and that's certainly wrong. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
