System V Compatible Init

Name: TGWDNGHN 2006-12-24 16:43

Citation Needed for Standard Run Levels

Hello! I read somewhere that, for a Sys V Compatible init program using runlevels, that the only reserved run levels are 0, 6, and S.

I would like to know IF there is an actual official or standards document that specifies that all SysV compatible init programs have to reserve those 3 run levels, and if someone could send me a link to the original SysV man page for the init, telinit (if if it existed back then) and /etc/inittab (if they had a man page for it).

I need these documents (ie. standard or original man page) for research purposes, and I would GREATLY appreciate if anyone could send them to me. Thanks!

SysV init style is garbage. BSD style wins.

Don't change these.
