According to my /etc/inittab: |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
# new-style single-user |
| 33 |
su0:S:wait:/sbin/rc single |
| 34 |
su1:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
so softlevel=single should get you there. However, you say it doesn't ... |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
# rc-update show single |
| 39 |
# |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Hmm ... nothing there. Sure enough its empty: |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
$ ls -la /etc/runlevels/single/ |
| 44 |
total 8 |
| 45 |
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 21 2010 . |
| 46 |
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 May 2 10:54 .. |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
So, what you would need to do I think is add the services you want starting at |
| 49 |
single runlevel there and you should be good to go. |
