SubjectRe: Init single and Serial console : How to ?
Date
Hello,

Got this one working :

LILO: linux init=/sbin/sulogin /dev/ttyS0

It finally asked me to enter root password, I did my maintenance,
and then...
/sbin/reboot did nothing
leaving the shell (exit) said :
Attempting to kill init
Panic, will reboot in 30 seconds.
(or something like that), but it didn't restart, and I had to reboot
the machine...
Is this the expected behaviour ?

Regards,
Paul
