You can do this by setting RC_USE_CONFIG_PROFILE="yes" in /etc/conf.d/rc |
| 16 |
The comment in the same file explains it |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
# RC_USE_CONFIG_PROFILE allows you to have different /etc/conf.d files |
| 19 |
# based on your runlevel - if a conf.d file for your profile does not exist |
| 20 |
# then we try and use the default one. |
| 21 |
# To enable runlevel selection at boot, append "softlevel=foobar" to your |
| 22 |
# kernel line to change to the foobar runlevel. Here we would search for |
| 23 |
# /etc/conf.d/<service>.foobar config files before trying to use the default |
| 24 |
# /etc/conf.d/<service>. |
| 25 |
# Note that it is only active if 'softlevel' was specified via the kernel line, |
| 26 |
# and it is intended to use for different grub/lilo entries to specify config |
| 27 |
# changes for say laptops between home and work, where you would have setup |
| 28 |
# 'work' and 'home' runlevels, with /etc/conf.d/*.<runlevel> as needed. |
| 29 |

If you need the same services to start in each config, but with different |
| 31 |
configurations, you can make the various runlevel directories symlinks |
| 32 |
to /etc/runlevels/default. |
