Folks are supposed to upgrade their init.d scripts to support LSB. Some of this is covered here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FCNewInit/Initscripts One aspect of that is to switch from sourcing /etc/init.d/functions to sourcing /lib/lsb/init-functions.
On the OLPC, we were concerned that the old initscript infrastructure had a considerable overhead. Would this change have a beneficial impact on speed? I used this benchmark to measure how slow a dummy initscript is: http://www.codewiz.org/pub/true.init Run it like this: time for i in `seq 1 10`; do ./true.init start; done On a B3/B4 laptop, executing 10 loops takes over 2 seconds.
