Hello, as Harry says RTFM --, no, I´m kidding, I resume AFAIK level 1 - activates SELinux, runs /etc/rc.sysinit, (that mounts the filesystems) and executes all scritps in /etc/rc1.d s or single - The same as level 1 but does not execute /etc/rc1.d scripts emergency - activates SELinux, mounts only / if you put at boot prompt init=/bin/sh - its like emergency but without SELinux I think thats all, if anyone can say anymore its welcome, Greetings ESG 2009/2/19 Brian Fox <genkuro@xxxxxxxxx> > Studying for the RHCE... > > What's the difference between the "emergency" "single" and 1 runlevels?
