Hello!
Thanks for an interesting post! It seems insserv has come quite some
way since late last year when I tried to use it last time.

seconds respectively. (That w

Yes.
The provided boot sequence look sane enough, but there are quite a lot
of scripts I do not recogniz

No, I never tried that. I could try that out and see.
