[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#696910: initscripts: cannot shut down when / on network - iscsi

[Ferenc Wagner]

Hi,

I was also bitten by this issue; Dear Maintainer, please consider fixing
it!  I applied to following patches to the reboot and halt scripts,
based on similar checks in the networking and open-iscsi init scripts:
