I fully understand that and the layout is now incorrect, see the new man
page for inittab. Also see the current LSB docs. That is my next
change/fix. /etc/init.d/rc might have to be patched as well for
the newer correct location of the init scripts. Anyhow lsb-tools should
do the correct thing anyway.
I use lsb-tools to install all the symlinks for the lfs-bootscripts
also, which in my opinion should be done as well. Lsb-tools should
also be a requirement for the lfs base system and when installing the
init scripts in blfs should also be used, Otherwise what is the
purpose?
Also when one needs to edit a previously installed init script, you
must remove the symlinks (using lsb-tools) before editing the init
script and running install_initd <script> or lsb-tools leaves the old
symlinks and installs the "new" symlinks.
Here is the output from current man page as installed by lfs
system. Notice that the run levels specify /etc/init.d not
the /etc/rc.d/init.d as lsf currently uses. Notice
l0:0:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 0 not as it is currently.
man inittab
A more elaborate inittab with different runlevels (see the comments
inside):
# Level to run in
id:2:initdefault:
# Boot-time system configuration/initialization script.
si::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS
# What to do in single-user mode.
~:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin
# /etc/init.d executes the S and K scripts upon change
# of runlevel.
#
# Runlevel 0 is halt.
# Runlevel 1 is single-user.
# Runlevels 2-5 are multi-user.
# Runlevel 6 is reboot.
l0:0:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 0
l1:1:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 1
l2:2:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 2
l3:3:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 3
l4:4:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 4
l5:5:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 5
l6:6:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 6
# What to do at the "3 finger salute".
