1) No start command. Check /etc/init.d/rcS: it simply runs "daemon start" where "daemon" is given each value in RUN_DAEMONS in turn.
2) Both ways are run by root. If you really need another user, you could put the following in local.sh:
su -c "tor -d &" - username &
3) Maybe does tord automatically run the service as another user? You can check, after starting it, who is the owner by:
ps | grep tor

I did it this way: In local.sh i defined:
> su -c "/etc/init.d/tord start &" - myusername &
That seems to work and allows me to control tor locally via tor-arm (since in slitaz there is no sudo, that's the most convenient way). Obviously, the access to the control port is password protected.
Generally, i'm not so sure about how tor has to be run; in slackware tor runs as user tor. In any case, the tor manual says it's not a good idea to run it as root.
Anyway, thanks for the lesson in busybox :)
