DESCRIPTION
       askrunlevel  is generally called at the end of the initial boot script,
       just before jumping to the proper runlevel (enabling multi-user).   The
       command  does  some cleanup for Linuxconf and prints the following mes-

       Hit any key to enter Linuxconf configuration mode
       Hit  to resume the boot sequence
       The boot sequence will resume in 20 seconds

       The configuration mode allows you to perform the following task:

       Select the graphical option mode (runlevel 5 generally)
       Select the text operation mode
       Configure the workstation (enter linuxconf main menu)
       Select a system profile
       Enter maintenance mode (a shell with nothing else running)

       askrunlevel is currently a symbolic link to /bin/linuxconf.
