I installed the the insserv package and it set up fine, it has a few dependencies (libc6, debconf, and sysv-rc) and suggests bootchart. but that was the only package i had to install, then just followed the instructions (copy and pasted 2 commands) and then rebooted and i must agree, it was definately a much improved boot time.

Actually, I've been doing that for.. a while. I never got bit by any of the bashism bugs. In any case, that was something I knew I could handle fixing is I *did* run into a bug. I'm not as comfortable with dependency-based init systems, but if the devs are calling it done I'm willing to try it out. I'm assuming the answer to both of the questions is "yes"? (Two *useful* replies, but no definitive answers.)
