Never mind ...

  Lynn> Can anyone point me to a Web page that explains the
  Lynn> Linux boot sequence ...

I found a great one at 

http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialInitProcess.html

in case anyone is looking for such a thing. (This looks

No need to respond, I'll just use this.

Sorry I neglected to sign my last message.
