Please see this old SuSE documentation for a good description of the Linux boot process:

Will this SuSE documentation be correct for CentOS, which is RedHat?
Well I guess the answer is yes and no, depending on what you are refering to.
I gave you that link specifically for the boot process and how the /etc/init.d scripts figure in the boot process.
The boot process is *probably* the same for most flavours of Linux. Maybe somebody else on this list can comment on that?
If you understand how these scripts work, then you will have more success at modyfying them :)
The good thing about Fedora/RHEL/Centos is the chkconfig script, which does all the hard work of setting up each run-level script for you.
Under SuSE a few years ago, these scripts had to be delat with by hand, IIRC. I know there was no chkconfig on the versions of SuSE I was using ~ 9.2
