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
