Thanks, and I found some pointer on it too. Turns out one can do this too: Type `a' at grub screen and be taken to the correct line immediately. add a numeral representing desired run level at the end: kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2088.nptl ro root=LABEL=/ vga=0x318 3 (or 1 etc) -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
