I thought that even if the runlevel 2-5 are copies of one, every 
runlevel has some additions on 1.So where is the runlevel whitout 
graphic support? Only runlevel 1? I need some more Information witch 
runlevel supports what on the debian system.

My knowledge's in debian is low.

Could you say my how i can customize these runlevesl. In special that 
runlevel 3 has no graphic support. Or is there a howto about this issue.

The man pages are often so, that i can't realy understand them totally. 
Because they only tell me the commands on options, but no examples to 
use them.

Thanks Richard
