10 Actually the boot runlevel is not a runlevel in the way you are
11 thinking. It is just a group of services that need to be run once when
12 your system starts. It is run once when you boot right after the sysinit
13 "runlevel".

15 It sounds like you might want to use the "nonetwork" runlevel for what
16 you are trying to do since the only thing in there is the local service.
