Use the editor of your choice.
Open /etc/lilo.conf create a duplicate entry for you default kernel.
Change 'label=' to something different, I set mine as current-init3.
To the append line add "init 3", without the quotes but with the space.
Here is an entry I made, yours should be similar.
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-16mdk
label=current-init3
root=/dev/hda5
read-only
optional
vga=788
append=" init 3 devfs=mount hde=ide-scsi hdg=ide-scsi hdh=ide-scsi"
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.18-16mdk.img
Save the changes and exit the editor.
Rerun lilo.
At subsequent reboots from the lilo boot menu simply select current-init3 and you will
boot to run level 3.
