Not necessarily. Often, peopel trying to fix their machine via following a tutorial or instructions from an IRC member: trust me, it can take quite a few lines of instuctions to direct a newbie from their BIOS's POST to getting into GRUB to append the '3' and booting that. Infact it may even be more troublesome than the few commands they will need to enter (since they need only type in what they are told).
