1 I used to specify this:
2
3 softlevel=boot
4
5 in the Grub screen to boot to single user. However, this doesn't work
6 anymore; it boots right into the "default" runlevel. I think this
7 happened after I upgraded to GCC 4.4.1 (and rebuilt system and world
8 with it, and also the kernel.)
9
10 What can the problem be? What is needed for "softlevel=" selection to work?
