Re: [PLUG] Single User Mode
|
Debian has this in it's /etc/inittab
~~:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin
So after doing 'telinit 1' to run the rc scripts in /etc/rc1.d it goes to
level S (done by the LAST script in /etc/rc1.d, does 'exec init -t1 S'
which now will run sulogin and prompt for root password.
Hope that helps..

Many a man that can't direct you to a corner drugstore will get a respectful
hearing when age has further impaired his mind.
