In this standalone profile, we enable services that don't need network connectivity. milestone/singler-user is one of them. A detail table of services enabled/disabled is listed at section 5.4.3 http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/nwam/design/#network_service
The propose is that first we boot up with standalone. and then when NWAM connectes to some network, it switches to a networked profile. -Jan
