looking at what is listed as started at boot at various runtime levels did  
not give me a clear idea what is going on, but it did occur to me that if  
a device is not required, starting it would not necessarily suceed??? so  
perhaps start at boot really means try to start at boot...

just speculating out loud waiting for someone who knows something to chime  
in :-)
