 2 # inittab: This file describes how the INIT
     process should set up
 3 # the system in a certain run-level.

 9 # Default runlevel. The runlevels used are:
10 #   0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to 0)
11 #   1 - Single user mode
12 #   2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same 
         as 3, if you do not have networking)
13 #   3 - Full multiuser mode
14 #   4 - unused
15 #   5 - X11
16 #   6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to 6)
