AFAIK you are correct, this is a bug in a few of the initscripts that |
| 29 |
don't behave sensibly if the root fs is network mounted. |

Another one that gets messed up is IPTAbles. I didn't think much of it |
| 32 |
because I figured I was the only person in the world crazy enough to |
| 33 |
have a diskless router/firewall. |
| 34 |
|

Interestingly, some of my diskless hosts do all right with this, others |
| 36 |
fail to shut down. |
