Will it go to the kernel ?

Below is documentation I've started on the kernel initialization
mechanisms. Other than reading the source, I haven't been able to find
much discussion on the topic.
My explanations of the different init levels is lacking. I haven't been
able to find any documentation on them. Existing usage seems to vary
quite a bit so its hard to tell their intended functionality. I was
hoping to get some help defining what the intended usage was. Especially
regarding what services are available at each level.

Feedback is appreciated. Thanks _matt
