If a service is not running but the init system thinks it is, you just |
| 9 |
need to zap it, just as suggested in the initscripts helpfile (I believe |
| 10 |
it was /etc/init.d/<a initscript> help but I could remember wrong, not at |
| 11 |
home and forced to use MS Windows atm :( ) |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
/etc/init.d/<initscript> zap |

Gentoo initscripts are just about perfect and work is in progress to make |
| 21 |
it even more perfect (if I recall correct then the initscript system is |
| 22 |
being developed to hold initscript dependencies in a tree so that multiple |
| 23 |
services can be started to increase boot-up time heavily) |
| 24 |
If you cared to read the docs from gentoo.org you wouldn't ask about it. |
| 25 |
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/rc-scripts.xml which is directly linked from |
| 26 |
the docs link on gentoo homepage. |
| 27 |
Also such questions do NOT go to the gentoo-dev mailing list. |
