You can, however, use the "update-rc.d" script (in /usr/sbin/) to manage the runlevel configuration (just like on a normal Debian/Ubuntu installation).

Documentation can be found here: http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Update-rc.d

So, as root, you should be able to do the following:

Code:

/usr/sbin/update-rc.d alarmd remove

To re-enable it later, do something like this:

Code:

/usr/sbin/update-rc.d alarmd defaults

There is a nice GUI utility available already: http://maemo-sdk.garage.maemo.org/maemo-control.html

The package is called maemo-control-services.
