Let me add this, if you type rc then hit tab twice, you should see some
|
42 |
more rc type commands. You may want to check into some of them too.
|
43 |
They provide info and do other things, including adding/removing things
|
44 |
from a runlevel. I'm assuming you are a bit new to Gentoo. I may be
|
45 |
wrong and it wouldn't be the first time either.
