+ <title>Overview</title>
+
+ <para>"Runlevels" are an obsolete way to start and stop groups of
+ services used in SysV init. systemd provides a compatibility layer
+ that maps runlevels to targets, and associated binaries like
+ <command>runlevel</command>. Nevertheless, only one runlevel can
+ be "active" at a given time, while systemd can activate multiple
+ targets concurrently, so the mapping to runlevels is confusing
+ and only approximate. Runlevels should not be used in new code,
+ and are mostly useful as a shorthand way to refer the matching
+ systemd targets in kernel boot parameters.</para>
