[gentoo-user] sysvinit scripts

[Egon Kocjan]

Hello,

I have developed a cross-platform installer which places service startup
script in /etc/init.d and symlink in /etc/rcX.d (there are some other
possible places like /etc/rc.d and /etc/rc.d/rcX.d). This approach works
almost "everywhere" (redhat, suse, debian/ubuntu, mandriva,
slackware, ...).

After reading Gentoo documentation, it seems I will have to recode the
startup script specifically for Gentoo, because functions start() and
stop() are expected instead of start and stop script arguments.

Is there another option like installing some sort of rcX.d
compatibility?

Thanks,
Egon
