Sorry for the confusion and my misinformed guesses. start-stop-daemon
uses the --exec argument to double-check it will kill the right process.
The problem on the live cd is that start-stop-daemon tries to match the
--exec argument /usr/sbin/gdm with /proc/<pid>/exe (where <pid> is the
correct pid from the /var/run/gdm.pid). On the live cd, /proc/<pid>/exe
contains "/rofs/usr/sbin/gdm" instead of "/usr/sbin/gdm".
I don't know if this should be fixed in start-stop-daemon (by relaxing
the --exec file name matching and relying on inode number matching) or
in casper.
