Have 7 Raspberry units now, 1 model B single core, 6 Pi 2 quad core.
The single core unit is running Pidora, a little sluggish but it is
running e-mail, Apache, MySQL, and is a fax server. Two of the model 2
units are running xbian. I tried running Pidora on the model 2 units
but it hangs on boot.
There is no splash screen on the Fedora 22 on Pi, just rapid scrolling
as it loads modules, no opportunity to edit the boot options to add
single. I've been using Linux since 1998 so I've tried all the tricks.
Last thing I did was to take the SD chip and edit options on another
computer. Fedora 22 doesn't use inittab like prior distros, uses
targets. I moved the level 3 target to a backup and copied level 1
(recovery) to level 3 but didn't help.
I'm wondering if I can edit the user file and add an ID then boot.

Hi John,
Nice to hear you're playing with a Raspberry Pi.
I have some ideas. Do you get a splash screen before it starts
booting? If so, press E to edit the current boot entry. At the end of
its kernel line add the word " single". Then proceed with the bootup.
I thinks that's F10 but it says what to press somewhere on the boot screen.
Once you've booted up you'll be in single user mode with full root
privileges. Set a root password there.
NB. I haven't used f22 yet and don't know if you are even allowed to
login as root. Some distros require you to login as a regular user and
use sudo su to get to root. That would require you to create a new user
account and add that user to one of the special groups (on Ubuntu that
group is adm).
hope that get's you going.-- users mailing
