Hi Richard,

Ubuntu  is slightly different in that it has replaced init with it's own
startup manager "upstart". I'm personally not so familiar with it, but
the config files are located in /etc/event.d.

Looking in the config file rc.default, it would appear that you still
can set your run level via /etc/inittab - you just have to create it.
I've not tried it myself though.
