# cd /etc/init.d # mv script script.OFF This will work. For the packaging system (dpkg) it looks like you removed the "script" file, and it will treat that as a "local modification". Since all files in /etc/init.d are marked as "conffiles", an update will not install a new file there since it would overwrite the "local modifications". And even though the symlinks are still there in /etc/rc?.d, the boot script will just ignore them. No weird error messages.
