create a script named "options" in /etc/rc.d
Here are the contents :
#!/bin/sh
clear
RUNLEVEL=`runlevel | cut -f2 -d " "`
if [ "$RUNLEVEL" -eq 3 ]
then
echo "Select :"
echo "[1] Login"
echo "[2] Shutdown"
echo "[3] Reboot"
read -p "Do : " option
case $option in
2)
halt;;
3)
reboot;;
*)
clear;;
esac
else
clear
fi
make the script executable with chmod
add an entry in /etc/rc.local
sh /etc/rc.d/options
Now whenever ur computer boots for into runlevel 3
then it executes this script or else it skips it.
