The runlevel conventions are not universal. By default, Debian has identical
runlevels 2-5 and leaves it up to the admin to customize it. Debian defaults
to runlevel 2.

On Gentoo, my machine comes up to runlevel 3 by default, i.e. just a command line. No KDE or Gnome.
However Mythbackend *is* running at this point. The command to have mythbackend running on Gentoo is
rc-update add Mythbackend default
This way the backend will come up on any reboots. Note that MySQL also needs to be up. This should be taken care of by the dependencies in the rc-script system.
