Hello List,
I want to boot into single user mode and run a script automatically.
I have been looking for a couple of hours and have found one solution I don't like.
How can I get the shell that is started in single user mode to run a script. My one solution was to add a profile in /etc/profile.d/ that called the script. Is this the only way to do it?
wild guess here: 1. make this a username that isn't used for any other purpose 2. try setting the default shell in /etc/password, for that user, to run the script. This may require some experimentation to find the correct incantation.
no clue if it'll work, haven't tried it.
good luck!
