*sigh* do i really not make any sense at all? do you have access to the 
web? or like just email? i'm sorry i assumed you had access to the web. 
i sent you links. according to the bottom link some systems that use 
SysV scripts are:

RedHat, Mandrake, Suse and Caldera

sounds like it's been changed a bit in mandrake if it is as you say it 
is. But then, it would no longer be system v scripts would it? more like 
system v-ish. or simply mandrake scripts. but then, maybe system v is a 
little different again and we are just taking the word of the distro 
people, i mean i've never actually had the oppertunity to sus out an 
actual system v system.

Anyway, if you had read it, then you would have read this

     "If the system is to change to runlevel 1 it will execute:

          /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/K20nfs stop
          /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/K50inet stop
     (assuming nfs and inet do not have start entries in 
/etc/rc.d/rc1.d)"  <--- SEE THIS BIT!!! (writing in capitals, maybe when 
you don't read it, it will grab your attention)

and no, i'm not sitting in the corner balling my eyes out. but i'm 
nearly there out of frustration. i know i'm hard to understand, but come 
on you wrote me off before you even read what i wrote. i mean, if you 
seriously thought i possibly had something remotely intelligent to say 
you would have at least glanced at the links i sent.

maybe i shouldn't bother? i mean whats the point? i'll just go back to 
my world and try and find conspiracys in everyones posts, i know you are 
all secretly aliens trying to invade our minds and use them as a huge 
clustered supercomputer to perform strange and horrible psychiatric 
experiments.

anyway. i've really had enough of this now. if you wanna learn 
something, go work it out for yourself like i did. obviously you've got 
no interest in listening to me. so i'll stop talking to myself.
