Q1: Start in runlevel 3

Q2: Dependent on system configuration. One way to check a little easier is:

   chkconfig --list| awk '{print $1,$5,$7}' and see. 

On the system this Windows VM is running under, the only service that would not be run in runlevel 3 was spice-vdagentd. Which makes sense.

Your mileage my vary...

Now for a quick quiz.

In SL6.4, how do you prevent Xorg from starting on boot?

(Hint: in SL5, you comment it out in /etc/inittab)

P.S.

Those who answer: "change run level from 5 to 3", get a second quiz:

quickly, when you do this, what other services become disabled?
