Is it possible to have a script on the initab that would bring up a screen and give you options to boot without or without certain scripts?. Would anyone have a piece of sample code?.
Thanks

Why not use run levels?

See man init

I think that's what I need but I'm looking for a sample script that would show how to bring up a window with options. Would anyone have an example?
Thx.
