Title:
  telinit 1 (or init 1) doesn't work in karmic beta livecd

Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  If you issue "sudo telinit 1" or "sudo init 1" in a live session, you briefly 
see the console
  dialog which asks you what to do (and from which in Jaunty you could select 
drop into
  a root command prompt), but it is immediately replaced by a non-functional 
gui, i.e. you
  see the desktop background but neither the keyboard nor mouse work (except for
  ctl-alt-delete which restarts).

  I can't capture the dmesg output because nothing seems to work, but as it 
scrolled by
  I saw a bunch of messages indicating various processes respawning.

  I tried this with the beta karmic desktop livecd on three machines; only on 
one of them
  did I get a glimpse of the console menu selector.  Looking at the various 
consoles, there
  was a line on one of them which indicated that the system was going into 
single user mode.
