I merely thought that since you did not know that one can boot directly into single user mode, (i.e. without booting into the normal level 5, and then using a shell terminal to "sudo init s")
I not only know how to boot into single-user mode, I know how to do it from a CLI without using sudo, which I personally consider a pointless crutch on a home box. (If you've been on this list for more than a few days, you've seen my opinion on that.) I've been using Linux since *before* FC 1, and have been using Fedora as my main OS since F 9. You seem to be interested only in telling me how to boot into init 1, and ignoring the fact that I only wanted to make sure that you *really were* in single-user mode, not init 3. Now, instead of repeatedly trying to tell your grandfather how to suck eggs, try answering the question I asked in my last message: "Why were you using single-user mode?"
