Re: runlevel + Serverstart at bootup

It should be noted, though, that you don't actually put the startup 
files in each of the folders: you create one file for each daemon or set 
of daemons in /etc/init.d and link to that (symbolically) from the 
individual folders. The name you give the links represents whether you 
want to start a daemon or shut it down, i.e.: a link to 
/etc/init.d/pcmcia named /etc/rc2.d/S20apmd starts APM relatively early 
after entering run leval 2.
