Nothing's wrong with them exactly. But I find it difficult to import other
init scripts. For example, I run a server called bitlbee. When I tried to
use install_initd bitlbee, it whined about no script providing $remote_fs.
I couldn't figure out where to get a script that provided remote_fs
either. I imported that original bitlbee script from Debian, however, so
that could have been the problem.
Upstart just looks easier. Systemd looks like it's rather labyrinthan.
remote_fs is provided by the netfs boot script. That mounts remote
filesystems at boot time. You need samba or nfs-tools or cifs-tools to
mount remote file systems.

When you look at the LFS/BLFS boot scripts, you will find that they are
pretty simple. A 'start' is generally less than 5 lines of a bash script.
Some commercial scripts are fairly long because they try to have
one-script-fits-all.
