[plug] Bootup services

[Brian Tombleson]

Err ..

When entering runlevel X, all the scripts starting with 'S' in the directory
/etc/rcX.d/ are executed with the argument 'start'
When leaving runlevel X, all the scripts starting with 'K' in the directory
/etc/rcX.d/ are executed with the argument 'stop'

.. at least, that's what I thought.
Relevant files/scripts to look through:
  /etc/inittab
  /etc/init.d/rc
  /etc/init.d/rcS

- Brian.
