No need to define a new runlevel, just use update-rc.d. Debian sets up
runlevels 2-5 as identical to each other with the expectation that users who
want to use them for process/daemon control will customize the runlevels to
their personal taste. (Note: Those Red Hat guys probably told you that the
default runlevel is 5, but Debian's default is 2.)
