`man init` says...
After it has spawned all of the processes specified, init
waits for one of its descendant processes to die, a power-
fail signal, or until it is signaled by telinit to change
the system's runlevel. When one of the above three condi-
tions occurs, it re-examines the /etc/inittab file. New
entries can be added to this file at any time. However,
init still waits for one of the above three conditions to
occur. To provide for an instantaneous response, the
telinit Q or q command can wake up init to re-examine the
/etc/inittab file.
