Good day!

Just "discovered" Upstart after ruining about a week's worth of spare
time trying to get something done with System V.  The sooner we move
beyond the need to use init.d/rcX.d for things like parallel
launching, the better...

On that note, I posted a request for assistance up on the General
Help section of Ubuntu Forums; and wasn't able to get much help with
my query.  Seems the community has just passed by Upstart. 
Disappointed --

At any rate, I simply need to launch a bash script from Upstart; and
cannot get around everything defaulting to dash instead.  I've read
the relevant documentation, and tried all I can reason through from
there: No dice.

Is there some straightforward way of getting a simple bash-banglined
script to run with bash instead of dash under Upstart???


Thanks so much; and have a great day --
