BSD-type system: init process

On a BSD-type system, the init process completes the following tasks as it initializes the system:


Runs the /etc/init.d/boot script to prepare the system

Processes /etc/inittab to determine the appropriate runlevel and scripts

Runs the scripts in the appropriate runlevel directory in /etc/init.d

Runs the /etc/init.d/boot.local script
