4.10. initscripts

The initscripts package contains system scripts to boot your system, change runlevels, activate and deactivate most network interfaces, and shut the system down cleanly.

On systems with more than two encrypted block devices, anaconda has a option to provide a global passphrase. The init scripts, however, do not support this feature. When booting the system, entering each individual passphrase for all encrypted devices will be required. (BZ#464895)
Boot-time logging to /var/log/boot.log is not available in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7. (BZ#223446, BZ#210136)
