Dependency based boot sequencing is the default in Debian. The
|
|
insserv program is used by sysv-rc to order init.d scripts based on
|
|
dependencies declared in the LSB information within the scripts
|
|
themselves.
|
|
|
|
To monitor the boot sequence, the bootchart2 project is a good choice and
|
|
Debian packages are available.
