note this comment: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=185429#c2

and this is how it's done in sysv /etc/rc.sysinit:

nashpid=$(pidof nash 2>/dev/null)
[ -n "$nashpid" ] && kill $nashpid >/dev/null 2>&1
unset nashpid
/sbin/start_udev

Comment 1 Daniel Malmgren 2006-12-29 12:36:50 UTC
Thanks for your report. I discovered this as well a while ago, so this is
already fixed in svn, the nash process is killed in system/bootmisc.
