I'm not calling those "init scripts". I'm referring to /etc/init.d/grub-common That's an executable /bin/sh shell script. Don't know what that is called if not an "init script". And then there are these (also /bin/sh scripts): /etc/grub.d/00_header /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme /etc/grub.d/10_linux /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/40_custom I assumed these were also some sort of init scripts, but I don't really know when they get executed. > That's the whole reason I dragged the init systems into the > discussion: you said that GRUB2 "got it's own initsystem and it's own > set of init scripts."

To me, /etc/init.d/grub-common is an init script. -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow! Excuse me, but didn't at I tell you there's NO HOPE gmail.com for the survival of OFFSET PRINTING?
