The only thing I have to say is that it's nice to get a quick definition if you're just curoius. The link to runlevel is there if you need more info. -- AlanH 22:29, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
While ubuntu does use upstart, runlevels still play an important role. Single user mode is still accessed with "sudo init 1" and startup/shutdown scripts are placed in respective rc directories.
The section IMHO should say ubuntu uses upstart and its init levels are the same as debians (as it did before).
I would do it myself but I am unsure of how accurate I am and I am not knowledgeable enough to talk about init. -- Sish 04:36, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
Run level 4 is for "turnkey" UNIX systems, such as AT&T's telephone switches. In a modern context an Pizza shop application would boot into run level 4. If the system is swapped out for diagnosis then the programmers can boot the machine into run level 3 or 5 for the standard multiuser development environment. I've got an old Bell System paper on System V Init which describes this, I'll see if I can find it. Gdt 12:53, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
I don't think they should be merged even they are so related they are not the same. Callmejosh ( talk) 08:01, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
What about runlevels a, b and c? They're called "on-demand" by man inittab(8)
, but the manual doesn't clarify what they're supposed to be used for. Does anyone have any documentation on those? --

Which OS has runlevels 0 to 9? -- Vssun ( talk) 08:14, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
With Arch fully switched to systemd, it no longer has runlevels by default. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.145.85.49 ( talk) 23:50, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
