You can always do that by appending init=/bin/sh (for example) to the |
| 6 |
kernel line when booting, so when lilo comes up, you append this text to |
| 7 |
the kernel name. You don't need to change lilo.conf unless you need |
| 8 |
this very often, then it might be convenient to do so. In lilo.conf you |
| 9 |
would also just put |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
append="init=/bin/sh" |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
to the kernel entry. |
