init 6 --> takes the system to level 0 and then back to the default level specified in /etc/inittab (initdefault) which is usually level 3 (check /sbin/rc6).
The startup script will need to be linked to level 3 (or whatever default level you have in inittab). Also make sure that the shutdown script for Oracle is working if you run it manually (I remember I had to modify them some time ago, for example check if it uses the shutdown immediate mode, replace svrmgrl with sqlplus, etc.).

My sysadmin seems to feel the problem rests with the Oracle scripts - we issue INIT 6 and nothing happens.
