ans 1.
Normally, we are run Linux in runlevel 3, you may use command "runlevel"
to see which runlevel you're running. ^_^
ans 2.
Well, If you were setting PostgreSQL well, you should see something like this..
1258 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/postmaster -i <= This is postmaster!!!
1132 pts/1 S 0:00 grep postmaster. <= This line only shows you that you're running grep pipe command.

Thus, your PostgreSQL is not running.

Please check bellows:

1. Do you have a "DIRECTORY" named "/etc/rc.d/init.d" ?
2. Do you have a "LINK" named "/etc/init.d" link to "/etc/rc.d/init.d"?
3. Do you have a "SCRIPT FILE" named "postgresql" in "DIRECTORY" named "/etc/init.d" OR "/etc/rc.d/init.d"?
Tell me info about above, It will help me to figure out how to help you.(MAYBE)
