What are you trying to do?
You do realize you aren't running the rc2.d scripts? You also realize
that you are are running rc.[06] rather than the traditional
rc[06].d? Are these script files rather than the traditional init
script directories? The further you stray from tradition, the more
risk you take in breakage :-/.
I would suspect that there is something in rc2.d that is necessary to
initialize the system. In fact, there usually is a lot in rc[2345].d
that initializes various parts of the system.
My suggestion is to add back in:
l1:1:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc1.d
l1:2:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc2.d
l1:3:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc3.d
l1:4:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc4.d
l1:5:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc5.d
and rename/change rc.0 and rc.6 to rc0.d and rc6.d
Note that runlevel 3 (text) and 5 (X11) are typical run levels. You
may have something in rc3.d that isn't in rc2.d but needs to be (once
you start running the rc2.d scripts).
If the rc[1-5].d script directories have more stuff than you want,
remove the extra stuff, preferably one piece at a time, checking for
breakage.
