No, I'm sure this isn't true. I don't know quite enough about the system
configuration and startup scripts, but I'm quite sure, from what I've read in the
run level scripts, that you can do just about ANYTHING having to do with
making programs active at boot time through these scripts.

But, you do need to know what you are doing, or you could make your
system not boot at all.
