Hi Tao,
You can shut it down with '/etc/init.d/zope stop' and to keep it
from starting again during bootup you can use the update-rc.d command

man page for that command.

Maybe this is a stupid question but:
I plan to try the reiserfs, but an curious about the fsck.
In particular, about when it runs after so many boots.
Do I have to disable this somehow. I suspect a e2fsck on a reiserfs
would be bad.

Rich,
I am unfamiliar with applying patches, recompiling kernels or otherwise
messing with the "Guts of the installation process". I have, however, been
working on a debian 2.2 box for about 8 months though. If you happen to

Someone asked today about how fsck automatically runs and how to avoid
it with ext3 partitions. The website with the ext3 patch says this:
If you're running any architecture except i386 and have upgraded
sysvinit recently (to 2.80-2 or possibly 2.80-1), beware that execute
permissions were inadvertently removed from /etc/init.d/rc and
/etc/init.d/rcS. I'm not sure exactly what will happen, but at the very
least it's probably bad karma
