include all relevant information in the bug report, dont link to forums ... otherwise we waste time reading forums trying to figure out what the reporter is talking about often times sifting through irrelevant garbage Going to single user mode and back is kind of broken in 1.12 (not that is worked exactly in prior baselayouts either)
It is fully functional in baselayout-1.13.0_alpha12, although some init scripts will need the following deps
depend() {
need localmount
after bootmisc
}
Otherwise if the need /var or something not mounted of / then they will fail. One example of this is metalog which I'll be fixing today.

the aforementioned post describes in more detail, but in summary: "init 1" to drop into single user mode gives the prompt "Give root password for maintenance (or type Control-D to continue)" as expected. However, the prompt does not behave properly. It appears that there is a conflict with both /sbin/sulogin and an active shell competing for the console. The prompt won't accept the root password, Control+D doesn't seem to do anything. It appears that the system is stuck and must be rebooted. I believe these issues fall under baselayout (I'm currently using 1.12.6), but if not, let me know and I can update this bug report. terminal9 gives a fix (about the 11th post) which appears to have solved my issue. Sorry this isn't a proper diff, but: /sbin/rc: if [[ ${SOFTLEVEL} == "single" ]] ; then - rm -rf "${svcdir}/softscripts.new" - /sbin/sulogin ${CONSOLE} + /sbin/telinit S exit 0 fi /etc/inittab: -l1:S1:wait:/sbin/rc single +l1:1:wait:/sbin/rc single Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. using an affected baselayout (?) version, run "init 1" 2. wait for services to stop 3. try to interact with the provided prompt Actual Results: Prompt does not accept root password. Prompt does not accept Control+D. Can't get out of prompt. Expected Results: Prompt accepts root password for su shell Prompt accepts Control+D to continue (return to init 3) I'm using sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.6 USE="unicode -bootstrap -build -static" If this issue doesn't pertain to baselayout, please let me know so I can adjust this report. Thanks!
