Re: [LI] Linux Single

[vineet <vineet@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Mr. Binand,
	Thanks for the suggestion. I appreciate your promptness to reply
so soon. Anyway can I edit the "rc" and other related files that are
invoked when a runlevel is chosen.
	What I want to do is that the person writes "linux single" at
the boot prompt and he enters into runlevel 3 or 6.(whichever way)
 ==> deception.
Thanks in advance.
regards
