[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Script sequence numbers

[Thomas Hood]

BTW, Ubuntu has its own policy for assigning sequence numbers to scripts in /etc/rcS.d/.
We might want to take this policy into consideration.

The Ubuntu policy appears to reflect the Below Zero discussions:

> Streamlined Boot Sequence
> (Scott James Remnant)
>
> Braindump (Medium):
> Identify what we're actually doing during boot up, and decide what we
> actually need to be doing and drop (or move) anything we don't; regroup
> the boot sequence into clear targets ("hardware detection", "console
> setup", "filesystem checking and mounting", etc.).
> All of the messages printed by the boot process should be clear,
> consistent and meaningful.
