Sorry if you know this already, but...

If it's like Mandriva, you have directories rc?.d (rc1.d, rc2.d, etc.) 
in /etc/rc.d, where ? is the runlevel.

Under these, you have symlinks to the services, with names starting Snn 
or Knn, where n is a digit. Symlinks starting S mean the service is 
started in that runlevel, symlinks starting K are killed when going to 
that runlevel. The digits nn are to make the symlinks get listed in order.

So I think the answer to your question is, you can number them from 00 
to 99. Lower numbers start first.
