Well, I have to qualify what I said. There are two "runlevels" you have to worry about. The OpenRC runlevels are named; you can switch between these using rc directly, for example: rc default rc single rc nonetwork The sysvinit runlevels are the numbered ones, and these are mapped to things to run, like 3 is mapped to /sbin/rc default. I believe runlevel 3 is mapped to other things in inittab, so, I guess the best answer is, it depends on what you are wanting to change. Does that make sense? William
