amazed to see that the value there was 2 !!!!

So, do those standarts of 5 = multiuser + X, 3 = multiuser - X, ...

At least as long as I have used debian (more than five years) my computer and all instalations I have made booted by default to runlevel 2...

OOppps.... sorry for the dumb question then... I guess I installed two many woody's servers and too few desktops... I must admit I used a couple of other distros as desktops, and I always tought of runlevel5 vs runlevel3 difference as standart... Sorry about that.

I'm enlightened now!

Thanks for the fast reply
