My suggestion:
Configure runlevel 4 (init 4, aka "rc4.d") to match the run
level that you like, with the modifications that you want. Run level
4 is "user customizable" and can be configured for anything.
A guy that I met recently configures init 4 for "airport
security", since he travels a lot. He set up this run level to run
with no services so that it boots up in about 15 seconds. No waiting
for a long boot up and shutdown with people in line behind him.
Clever, if you ask me. ;-)
