<para>When run-levels are changed (for example, when halting the

system), <command>init</command> sends termination signals to those

|
processes that <command>init</command> itself started and that should
|
|
not be running in the new run-level. While doing this,
|
|
<command>init</command> outputs messages like <quote>Sending processes
|
|
the TERM signal</quote> which seem to imply that it is sending these
|
|
signals to all currently running processes. To avoid this

misinterpretation, modify the source so that these messages read like

<quote>Sending processes configured via /etc/inittab the TERM signal</quote>

instead:</para>
