Note that the How-To from Xmodulo (again) fails to mention the "new" initialization "standard" for system initialization (obsoleting SysV Init, etc. There has to be a way to remove the new software (kickstart, quickstart??) and go back to using the SysV process. Whomever did this, imo, ignored one Cardinal Rule: If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

What part of SysV Init were these geniuses trying to fix? What improvements did they make? The only change I see is that I can no longer manipulate the init.d scripts that get run at startup...
