Mostly you will want to have syslogd, initd ... running.
syslogd does the logging for you, inetd starts not so often used
daemons.
The scripts can be found in /etc/init.d, links to them for each
runlevel are in /etc/rc[S1-6].d.
Read about 'sysvinit' and turn Snn scripts to Knn scripts to adjust
your runlevel setup.

Build a kernel without those devices / modules.
