There are usually comments near the top of inittab wherein the distribution
describes its use of the various run levels. Perhaps Debian reserves run levels
4 and 5 for something special.

>Also, we are using getty rather than mingetty.

getty is the standard utility, wehreas mingetty is a very stripped down getty
which is all that's necessary for a virtual console.
