Hi,

I have a problem with a just installed Tur64 system (Tru64 v5.1). I have
done something to this machine that causes it to halt in single user
mode when ever it boots. This is particularly unfortunate as it
gives the user a root shell. I have to hit CTRL-D to continue the boot.
The initdefault in /etc/inittab is 3. This appeared
to happen after it did an aborted kernel rebuld. I have searched the archives
but can find nothing relevant.

I hope some one can throw some light on this.

TIA

Rob
