I most definitely want to do that in a couple of cases. Although SuSE's init structure is fine for the regular user, there's no point in parsing /etc/rc.config `ls /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/ |wc -l` (= 102 in my place) times just to pick out a single "yes" or "no" for services you'll _never_ want to start and in some cases even haven't installed (and yes, as everybody else I wonder why the heck SuSE believes users want nscd).
How much time does it take for a modern computer to parse this? 1 sec? 2 sec? will you really notice?
If I'll get my laptop on wednesday (most definitely booting more than once a day), I'll throw out 90% of the start scripts.
do what you want, but I would recommend to just set it to "no" in /etc/rc.config. What happens if you install the update for, say nkitb? servers start again, which you didn't want?
Ciao, Basti
PS: Nix, if you quote the question _above_ your answer in your reply, things will be easyer... And plz stop full quoting.
Hey, it's not the really big volume list, is it?
