I think /etc/init.d/sysfs just sets up the mounts and then exits, so |
| 60 |
there is no need for a "stop" since it is never in a "running" state |
| 61 |
(well, maybe for a split second). there is no sysfs daemon and running |
| 62 |
status of /etc/init.d/sysfs does not indicate whether or not sysfs is |
| 63 |
mounted. I think you should check /proc/mounts for that. But I could |
| 64 |
be wrong. :) |
