There usually are ways to permanently disable init scripts, > though. You mean the suggested # update-rc.d drbd disable on a Debian system? I am not sure how the update-rc.d drbd defaults in the Debian package of drbd respects the admins 'disable' in case of an package upgrade (i.e. apt-get upgrade). According to Debian policy changes in the configuration of init scripts should be kept. But the policy is written a little bit fuzzy there. I will test in the next weeks what exactly happens.
