>From What I Know, the process is this:

- Modules from initrc are loaded (their config is handled *in* initrc)
- Filesystems are loaded up from /etc/fstab and mounted (here or after
init gets kicked?)
- init kicks in
- init reads /etc/inittab
- init runs whatever is listed under "sysinit" (usually /etc/init.d/rcS)
- init then kicks in whatever is initdefault in /etc/inittab
- init also kicks off special deaemons (such as getty) to handle
logins in the format of:
(num):(runlevels):[respawn|???]:(path to command)

after that, its all up to the user.
