I don't understand what you mean by booting to a single user
maintenance mode. How do I do that?
At the grub menu, select the kernel you wish to boot.
Press "e"
Move cursor to the "kernel" line
Press "e"
Move cursor to the end of the line. Append " 1" or " single"
Press<enter>
Press "b"
This will load the kernel and run a modified start-up sequence (not the
regular init command). You get a root shell which is quite limited but usually
adequate for repairing broken system.
In a way, it's very similar to booting into a LiveCD without having to go and
find the CD first
Hi,
and again I learnd something I didn't know, jet.
Anyway I also would try to follow Dales advise with pressing "i" during
boot.
Also some time ago I had a problem after an upgrade with my keyboard.
Changing to usb was the workaround for me (the keyboard has usb and the
ps2?). Anyway I never fixed the problem.
