Assuming you're using GRUB, you just: 1) From the main screen, highlight the kernel you want to boot and press 'e'. 2) Highlight the line starting with 'kernel' (the second line in most default stanzas), and press 'e' again. 3) Append a '1', '3', or '5' to the line, depending on what run-mode you want, and hit enter. 4) Press 'b' to boot from the altered stanza. -- Ben Steeves _ bcs@xxxxxxxxxx The ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) ben.steeves@xxxxxx against HTML e-mail X GPG ID: 0xB3EBF1D9 http://www.metacon.ca/ascii / \ Yahoo Messenger: ben_steeves
