An Example Inittab
   #
   # inittab       This file describes how the INIT process should set up
   #               the system in a certain run-level.

   # Default runlevel. The runlevels used by RHS are:
   #   0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
   #   1 - Single user mode
   #   2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking)
   #   3 - Full multiuser mode
   #   4 - unused
   #   5 - X11
   #   6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
   # 
   id:3:initdefault: What runlevel to boot to
   
   # System initialization.
   si::sysinit:/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit         Initialize
   
   l0:0:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 0      How to move to each succeeding runlevel   
   l1:1:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 1
   l2:2:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 2
   l3:3:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 3
   l4:4:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 4
   l5:5:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 5
   l6:6:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 6

   
   
   # Things to run in every runlevel.
   ud::once:/sbin/update
   
   
   Tells the system how to handle a ctrl-alt-del sequence.  Note that
   this could be modified to do something other than a shutdown, or to
   handle it differently on a mulituser system.
   
   # Trap CTRL-ALT-DELETE
   ca::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t3 -r now
   
   # When our UPS tells us power has failed, assume we have a few minutes
   # of power left.  Schedule a shutdown for 2 minutes from now.
   # This does, of course, assume you have powerd installed and your
   # UPS connected and working correctly.  
   pf::powerfail:/sbin/shutdown -f -h +2 "Power Failure; System Shutting Down"
   
   # If power was restored before the shutdown kicked in, cancel it.
   pr:12345:powerokwait:/sbin/shutdown -c "Power Restored; Shutdown Cancelled"
   
   Set up the 6 tty sessions that are standard.  What you
   get are six possible consoles that are switchable with ctrl-alt Fn

   # Run gettys in standard runlevels
   1:12345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1
   2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2
   3:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty3
   4:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty4
   5:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty5
   6:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty6
   
   # Run xdm in runlevel 5
   x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/X11/xdm -nodaemon
