+ Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]] features the Upstart initialization system. All System V init scripts should run fine in compatiblity mode. However, users who have made customizations to their `/etc/inittab` file will need to port those modifications to upstart. For information on writing upstart scripts, see [http://upstart.ubuntu.com/getting-started.html the Upstart Getting Started Guide].
