There never has been anything in my single user runlevel. It worked |
| 55 |
fine a few weeks ago but after the openrc upgrade, no more worky. |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
The funny thing is, I can go to a console and type in rc single, that |
| 58 |
works fine. It goes to single user mode with no errors. Well, I did |
| 59 |
notice top showed the ttys still running. I'm going to test that |
| 60 |
later. That may be another thread for another day. Sort of beating on |
| 61 |
one thing at a time. ;-) |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
I just thought maybe it changed from softlevel to something else but if |
| 64 |
it did, I can't find it documented anywhere and even Google appears to |
| 65 |
be lost on this. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
Open to ideas still. |
