I thought there was a tool that just lists the contents. Things is, I'm |
| 19 |
not sure what I would be looking at. I figure the contents of some of |
| 20 |
the files is more important than whether it is there or not. I guess. |

I have a bad history with these init thingys. It was one reason I |
| 22 |
switched to Gentoo. Keep in mind, I switched way back in 2003 when it |
| 23 |
was rare that a init thingy was needed in Gentoo. It seems someone |
| 24 |
screwed that up. |

Anyway. I try to keep a few fall back plans around. Spare kernels |
| 27 |
etc. ;-) |
