Thanks. Just checking.... > If you have specific questions for your project, we'll try to answer them > on this alias. It would be good if there was a way to specify that the service had to have completed before milestone/multi-user. I expect it to be configured enabled by default as it's purpose to load some configuration into the kernel that should really be done before multi-user. When the kernel can read service properties, I'd expect this service to be removed and the kernel subsystem initialization to read and set the values. I'd expect it would be dependent on manifest-import ;-) I expect I've just missed finding where this is documented. Gary..
