Something has to start the scripts when needed. They don't start on their own.
That's what sysvinit did. On a runlevel change, it just runs the scripts according to the alphabetical sort of the S*/K* symlinks in rc?.d/. No magic involved.
Yep.
A point, though: openSUSE modified system V in a way that it ignored all the symlinks in those "level" directories. It used another method, which I will not explain here; but anybody interested can look it up in the documentation for openSUSE 11.4, for instance, which I believe was the last release to use that method.
The change came with parallelization of the starting up of the scripts, years before systemd was heard of.
Which means that the entire excuse for systemd -- parallelization of start-up... isn't an actual factor. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
