Hi, this happened on x86-64, a fresh install, using the default kernel for that setup.
What I did was a simple "init 1" at the console. X was running at the time on another console, but _should_ not have affected the process. (e.g. shutting down by shutdown -h now from the exactly the same state of things worked). I am only even mentioning X because this was running the merry proprietary nvidia driver. (but why this should prevent me from entering single user mode is beyond me ...) Thanks for the fast feedback!
