My grub.conf is as following. title Linux Init Break kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda6 ro rootwait break=y initrd /initrd.gz What I expect is by adding *break=y* to cmdline, init will pause early in the boot process and launch an interactive sh shell which can be used for troubleshooting purposes. But kernel is disregarding break=y. And it loads up without launching sh shell. Is it the right way to launch interactive shell ?
I would remove the break=y and replace it with init=/bin/sh What version of CentOS are you running? _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
