Just wondering if Debian should switch to LSB recommendation
LSB recommends:
0 halt
1 single user mode
2 multiuser with no network services exported

Well, my point was to have a common predefined way of doing it: once you
install kdm (or someone else), or move to xdm or whatever, you still can
disable the start of X by putting nox in the command line, instead of having
to erase the links in rc2.d.
Acutally there should be no link in

Thats not true. Read the Debian Policy. Its just that some other
distributions use runlevel 2 for console mode. In Debian thats all up to
the user/administrator of the system. Of course we can change this but
its not true currently.
Sorry, consider me spoiled by SuSE which I am forced to use

for what the LSB has to say about the subject
So its seems SuSE was following LSB recommendations.

But that's just the process's command line, isn't it? I thought they

Please don't recommend rm'ing the S* links. Rename them to K* instead

then there's still single user mode for that, so wasting a whole
