I had a problem with my Fedora system at work today which required that I get to a root console login to fix it. The fault (simply a network change elsewhere) prevented the system from booting as it couldn't mount some necessary NFS drives. How is one supposed to revert to runlevel 3 (or even 2) to overcome this sort of problem? Is there a grub/boot parameter one can use to change the runlevel? I had to resort to using an installation CD in rescue mode to change /etc/inittab, I was then able to boot in runlevel 2, see what was wrong and fix it (just an /etc/hosts change in the end). This seems a rather difficult way to fix what was actually a rather trivial fault. -- Chris Green -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
