A note is not a bad idea, but is the information on the page really
outdated, or is it inappropriate because it does not reflect the reality
in jessie and onwards? As I tried to say in another post in this thread,
what should the page say and how should it be structured? What should be
omitted and what be put in. What is the purpose of the page?

Sorry if I gave the impression that Felix Miata should be personally
responsible for any changes. The point I was trying to make was that
someone (or a number of someones) has to do it. Take a look at the
BootProcess page. The link is on the Init page; looking at that page
in isolation only scratches the surface of the task.
