I haven't tried using it for this, but I wonder if RC_USE_CONFIG_PROFILE |
| 12 |
would help. See /etc/conf.d/rc for details but basically you set up |
| 13 |
different configs for different runlevels, so you could have a different |
| 14 |
runlevel for each situation, but make the actual runlevel directories |
| 15 |
symlinks to default. Selecting the runlevel on rebooting would certainly |
| 16 |
pick up the appropriate config, you'd have to try it to see what happens |
| 17 |
when switching runlevels while running. |
