Sorry Sagi. What I meant was that there happen to be other links in rc0.d that start with K10: K10wine, K10xfs AND K10dbora. They all point to different scripts in /etc/init.d.

# ls -al K10*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Oct 16 19:25 K10dbora -> /etc/init.d/dbora
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Oct 17 22:09 K10wine -> ../init.d/wine
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Oct 14 23:57 K10xfs -> ../init.d/xfs

I tried changing the link to K01dbora, which made it unique, but that didn't work.
