Where do you get the number 5 from ?
I did a very quick (and probably insufficient) look based on
/lib/svc/method and /etc/init.d and I only find 2
/sbin/sh (and its links /bin/sh and /usr/bin/sh)
/bin/ksh
So what are the other three shells used during boot ?
/sbin/sh <statically linked (yuk)
/bin/sh
/bin/ksh
/bin/ksh93 <new
/bin/bash
/usr/xpg/bin/sh
Cheers,
William
