It never stopped being used. Debian used runlevel 2 as the standard runlevel forever AFAIK. The 3 vs. 5 runlevel is a Red-Hat standard, not a linux standard. Debian uses 2 as regular and 1 IIRC as single user. The others are there if you wan't to create custom ones. You can just remove/disable the display manager (kdm/wdm/xdm/gdm) if you don't want X to startup automatically. > I'm using sarge intalled with rc2 business-card installer > Joao Clemente > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
