[Sussex] Ubuntu Startup Runlevel....

[Richie Jarvis]

Hi Folks,

Just a quick Q.  I've just installed Ubuntu 6.10 on my fileserver, and 
have been trying to find out where the runlevel that the system comes up on.

Now, this is the thing, being a redhat/solaris person, I've always 
simply softlinked the script in the /etc/init.d dir to the relevant 
runlevel that I want the system to come up on, in the /etc/rc3.d dir for 
commandline, and /etc/rc5.d for GUI (on redhat).  The default runlevel 
that the system comes up to is defined (on redhat and solaris) in the 
/etc/inittab file with the initdefault line.

At first glance, it seems that Ubuntu is slightly different - it comes 
up in runlevel 2 - I can see the /etc/init.d contains all the usual 
suspects, and the softlinks are there, but where is the inittab file?  
Google tells me that Debian uses inittab, so where is it in Ubuntu?

Reason for doing this:  I want to auto startup LVM and Mysql - so I just 
link them to /etc/rc2.d, right?

Thanks in advance....
