Hi, 

I think you're looking for the file /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf

<quote>
knight at ubuntu-desk:~$ sudo cat /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf 
# rc-sysinit - System V initialisation compatibility
#
# This task runs the old System V-style system initialisation scripts,
# and enters the default runlevel when finished.
<snipped>

# Default runlevel, this may be overriden on the kernel command-line
# or by faking an old /etc/inittab entry
env DEFAULT_RUNLEVEL=2
