+	Configuration of System V init under Debian GNU/Linux
+
+Most Unix versions have a file here that describes how the scripts
+in this directory work, and how the links in the /etc/rc?.d/ directories
+influence system startup/shutdown.
+
+For Debian, this information is contained in the policy manual, chapter 
+"System run levels and init.d scripts".  The Debian Policy Manual is 
+available at:
+
+    http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/#contents
+
+The Debian Policy Manual is also available in the Debian package
+"debian-policy".  When this package is installed, the policy manual can be
+found in directory /usr/share/doc/debian-policy. If you have a browser
+installed you can probably read it at
+
+    file://localhost/usr/share/doc/debian-policy/
+
+Some more detailed information can also be found in the files in the
+/usr/share/doc/sysv-rc directory.
+
+Debian Policy dictates that /etc/init.d/*.sh scripts must work properly
+when sourced.  The following additional rules apply:
+
+* /etc/init.d/*.sh scripts must not rely for their correct functioning
+  on their being sourced rather than executed.  That is, they must work
+  properly when executed too. They must include "#!/bin/sh" at the top.
+  This is useful when running scripts in parallel.
+
+* /etc/init.d/*.sh scripts must conform to the rules for sh scripts as
+  spelled out in the Debian policy section entitled "Scripts" (§10.4).
+
+Use the update-rc.d command to create symbolic links in the /etc/rc?.d
+as appropriate. See that man page for more details.
+
+All init.d scripts are expected to have a LSB style header documenting
+dependencies and default runlevel settings.  The header look like this
+(not all fields are required):
+
+### BEGIN INIT INFO
+# Provides:          skeleton
+# Required-Start:    $remote_fs $syslog
+# Required-Stop:     $remote_fs $syslog
+# Should-Start:      $portmap
+# Should-Stop:       $portmap
+# X-Start-Before:    nis
+# X-Stop-After:      nis
+# Default-Start:     2 3 4 5
+# Default-Stop:      0 1 6
+# X-Interactive:     true
+# Short-Description: Example initscript
+# Description:       This file should be used to construct scripts to be
+#                    placed in /etc/init.d.
+### END INIT INFO
+
+More information on the format is available from insserv(8).  This
+information is used to dynamicaly assign sequence numbers to the
+boot scripts and to run the scripts in parallel during the boot.
