RE: [expert] Can't Break X Autostart

[Russ Johnson]

"Normally", the init level is set by the first non-comment line in
/etc/inittab. Mine says:

id:3:initdefault:

and my system does properly boot to runlevel 3.

/etc/inittab is the file that controls how init works. You can override
inittab by specifying a parameter at the lilo prompt. So, that being the
case, let's see what's in the /etc/lilo.conf file. All of it.

Yes, but what rc.5 has is irrelavent; the question is: "why are we
using rc.5 in the *first* place? -- what's putting us into run-level 5?"

Do you have an init in the rc.local at all?  (Possibly linked in for
run-level 3.)  I suspect not, and that 'init' is some "special" magical
string that will require a more expert expert than me to decipher, but
I figured we could eliminate the obvious first.
