    The question isn't very clear. Are you saying you set the default runlevel to 6 and want to know how to set it back?

    Also, I'm curious where you got "Open Source Operating System A server or computer" from.

    @RuiFRibeiro I disagree; I think an assignment would be more clearly written than that. – Sparkette Oct 23 '16 at 20:14
  • Is a little synthetic question,but I understand you probably has put the runlevel 6 as default runlevel,if use the standard init run from cd,or from single user mode editing grub ,and then edit /etc/inittab,put defaultrunlevel to 3 o 5 – elbarna Oct 24 '16 at 00:38

Your question is a bit unclear...

If you're running a Unix-like operating-system - like Linux or *BSD - which uses init as the ancestor of all other processes, you should never set the default runlevel to 0 = halted system, or 6 = reboot system.

If you have specified one of the above as the default runlevel in /etc/inittab; you should boot your computer from a disc or USB, mount the root-partition of your installed OS (on the harddrive), and edit its /etc/inittab (eg. /mnt/etc/inittab) to a more suitable run-level. (If it's an old-style inittab, I think the line is "ri:6" - presumably for "runlevel initial".)
