It is more than one year without comments, sugesstions etc.. The 9.0 
release cycle is comming and we still have no rc script for iSCSI 
initiator in base.

Are there somebody willing to commit the script? I can dedicate some of 
my free time to rewrite it in some "better" way if somebody will tell me 
what is wrong in an earlier version and what will be the right name for 
the script.
