This is where sysinit/upstart/systemd kind of fail me. Stuff like this is 
really not a system service, but rather system configuration.

In the above, what is there to stop? The script sets the system up and 
exits. (I am guessing that is what oneshot means) So what is the remain 
after exit thing in this case? That doesn't make sense as there is (or 
should be) no remaining running process.
