I was just thinking about the occasional discussions of how runlevels are handled by Debian vs. by Red Hat vs. by 'traditional' *nixen, and I got to wondering: AFAIK, runlevels 0, 1, and 6 are always, without exception, shutdown, single- user, and reboot. Are these numbers hardcoded into the kernel/init or would it be possible to set up a system so that, e.g., runlevels 0-6 are normal multi-user modes and reboot, shutdown, and single-user are runlevels 7, 8, and 9 (without making any changes to the source)? Not that this would be a Good Idea - I'm sure it would break many things - but I'm curious as to whether it's possible. -- "Two words: Windows survives." - Craig Mundie, Microsoft senior strategist "So does syphillis.
