Starting all boot scripts as background processes can potentially lead to |
14 |
some scripts starting before prerequisite ones have finished. For instance, |
15 |
if your network hasn't come up yet, and you start network services. |
16 |
|

Better solutions include Serel (www.fastboot.org) and Richard Gooch's fast |
18 |
boot scripts: http://www.atnf.csiro.au/people/rgooch/linux/boot-scripts/ |

Currently, the trade off between flexibility of serel versus the |
21 |
low-overhead of Richard's scripts has meant neither has been adopted over |
22 |
the present standard. I've heard people suggest hybrid approaches like using |
23 |
something like serel to generate something like Richard's scripts. |

Anyway... back to lurking. |
