In my particular case, SLES 9, SP3. However, the "single" kernel parameter has been around in Redhat since at least the 4.x days and IIRC, SuSe started as a Redhat fork (or I'm mixing up with Turbolinux). Other distros have their own method of indicating single user, Gentoo for example uses "softlevel=single". Some distros support passing the init runlevel as well (ie "1" for single user or more precisely runleve 1).
