By default, KnoppMyth only starts daemons that are needed for MythTV to run. If you'd like have a daemon to automatically start on boot do the following:

#update-rc.d daemon defaults

For the newb's, to remove a daemon from the start-up, simply add the word "remove" like so:
Code:
# update-rc.d remove daemon

Is there a way to list the daemons that are being loaded at boot time and maybe even the order that they load in?

Code:
ls /etc/rc5.d

The files that start with a 'S' are loaded on system startup. The files that start with a 'K' are for shutting down. They are run in number order in their file name.

I am pretty sure that the system starts up in single user mode
(run level S) then switches to runlevel 5 so a more complete
list might be given by:
Code:
ls -1 /etc/rcS.d/* ; ls -1 /etc/rc5.d/*

;-) I was going to say "read the log files!" since most init scripts self identify when run, but looking at the appropriate /etc/rc?.d directories is really the right answer.
