Typo: s/preseed/precede/


Not sure if it also belongs in this document (not sure if it targets
package maintainer, sysadmins, or both), but a FAQ about upstart jobs in
Ubuntu is how to (temporarily) prevent existing jobs from starting
"automatically".  Upstart 0.6.7 has the "manual" stanza, but that's not
in any Ubuntu release (yet).

I think the "best practice" in that case is to comment out the "start
on" line?


And thanks for compiling these "best practices"...  :)
