Do you _really_ care whether an 'init thingy' exists on your system, or is this energy about it really based in something else? I'm just not understanding the resistance so I'm curious. I don't like, really don't like, the work that currently goes into making my 'init thingy' work. All the Gentoo docs about creating hierarchies by hand and populating them with files and then compressing it. All that drives me nuts. It should be 100% automatic, and probably is with the right tools which I haven't found. But I'm not understanding why you are so against it in totality. It would be one thing to say that it's too much work. That I understand, but not wanting one seems a bit overboard to me... - Mark
