(Get the code!)
Is there a way to pass kernel parms or other parms to GRUB to shut off services that were added against my wishes, without my knowledge, and certainly without my consent ? There sure as hell should be. I'd sure love to turn off the "features" Playmouth, AppArmor, ureadahead and sreadahead.
What a stain on the previously excellent "dist-upgrade" track record of ubuntu ! This is very microsoft-ish behavior, to install extra crap, turn it all on, and totally screw what was a previously flawless box: Unauthorized services were added that have now downed a production server. Why can't dist-upgrade be left alone, and not add all this additional crap, none of which is guaranteed or even tested, and all of which will certainly cause user-specific failures.
