In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" List-Id: Hi, Just wondering if someone could tell me how to boot RH 7 into single user mode? I am running with Lilo on my mbr and dos selected as my default operating system. I know that when I boot, I can down arrow once to load Linux, but i have no idea how to get a lilo prompt, or what to type if I had one. I also have a bootdisk if it would be easier to do that way. I need to do this because I was playing with sndconfig. Sndconfig decided to write to my modules.conf before actually testing the settings and now my system is locking at bootup. If anyone has any suggestions other than single user mode as to how to get around this, I'm all ears. Thanks for any thoughts, Al
