The easiest way of finding out would be to look at the kernel source
tree for the kernel SUSE ships.  I doubt very much it got incorporated
into SLES8, but you never know.

The way I've always done this was to boot from the installation kernel
and pass it a parmfile that has "1" on the end of it.

Subject: Booting into Single User Mode (init 1)

Hi all,

Is there a way to boot a Lin-z system into single user mode?   (I use
SLES
8 (2.4.21) and SLES 9 (2.6.5) )

I saw a patch to kernel 2.4 to allow multi-boot if you had multiple boot
configurations in zipl.  Is there another way?  Was this patch picked up
into the kernel?

Thanks for the help,

tom
