Subject: [gentoo-dev] strange gentoo shutdown sequence
Date: Sun, 02 May 2004 13:40:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c72ms3$dlq$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)

hi,

gentoo usually does the following if i execute halt or reboot:

sending all processes the TERM signal
sending all processes the KILL signal
stopping xdm ...
stopping alsasound ...
etc....

in may eyes, this has to be the other way round:
first shutdown all deamons properly with the init.d-script, and than 
send the remaining processes the TERM and KILL signals.


why does gentoo handle things the way it does? redhat etc. do it the 
other way i described. using the init.d-script sounds more resonable to me.

Thx
   Sven
