System V - etc/initab file

[Guest]

I'm curious if Kubuntu produces the standard etc/inittab file or not; either running live CD or upon hard disk install. I'm using liveCD right now and can't find it. Or maybe Kubuntu has a different name for it.

No inittab here. Kubuntu (and the other ubuntu variants) use initng, not SysV init. So everything's a bit different.

Actually, Ubuntu uses upstart, not initng, unless that changed for Hardy (though I highly doubt it, since upstart is Ubuntu's child).

Ahem...upstart even. I was trying to remember which it was, and evidently remembered wrong.
