Hi all, Is it possible to create a whole new runlevel, say runlevel 7, in 8.2. I wish to leave the currently configured runlevels as they are (whilst experimenting) and be able to do what I want on a 'spare' runlevel. TIA Al
Runlevels are a Linux kernel thing, so they are present in all Linux distributions whether they like it or not. You can not add or remove runlevels unless you change the kernel code and recompile a new kernel. If you need to experiment with runlevels you can easily install SuSE once mores beside your current production installation, and then experiment with your new installation. I suggest you make seperate partitions for your experimental installation, and boot it from a boot floppy to keep it totally separate from your production installation. This is how I have my computer set up, so I can experiment to my hearts content without running the risk of breaking anything on the system I use on a daily basis. Works like a charm. :o) Best regards :o) Johnny :o)
