atomxI tried a few times to read the init scripts, and saw that inittab misses, and I noticed that something unusual is there18:25
atomxIn fact, upstart represents the new init scripts of init ? Is there some change in executable init ?18:25

atomxI saw on that huge page the link to this channel, this is why I am here, probably somebody here can explain me in 2 minutes how 1. to write a new script 2. what are the changes from the classic System V scripts 3. if I can study the new system in less than 1 hour, and completely understand it.18:29
ogra_see the cookbook link at the top of the page 18:30
ogra_and no, 1h is likely not enough18:30

atomxI started to read the introduction, and upstart seems great 18:41
jodhatomx: the best place to start is the Upstart Cookbook: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/. The first few pages should explain what you need - you don't need to read it all to start with :)19:04
