Nope - it starts by running anything in rc.sysinit, then runs anything for the default runlevel configured in the inittab file (unless overriden when grub loads the kernel). There are conventions, but runlevels are pretty much just a way of offering multiple configurations to boot into - e.g graphical vs console, with vs without networking, etc. Simon.
