</div>If you are using *buntu, you can thank them for their (not<br>
so)wonderful attempt at an init system called upstart. I filed 2 bugs<br>
(both 10.04/10) about it. It is one of the reasons I lost data and<br>
migrated away from them. There will still be daemons writing to disk<br>
with it just turns off. Pretty dismal.. I sure hope the up and<br>
coming systemd does not pull this crap to shave a couple seconds off<br>
of startup/shutdown times..<br></blockquote><div> </div><div>The bug i'm aware of is <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Droid Sans', arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; border-collapse: collapse; color: rgb(80, 0, 80); "><a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/542627" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(103, 117, 58); ">https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/542627</a> which I didn't see any comments from you in. </span></div>
