On start-up if I specify the "-s" switch ( e.g. boot: -s ) to boot
into single user mode it just gets ignored and boots into multiple
user mode.

Does anybody have any idea what causes this or how I could boot into
single user mode ?

I am running 3.3, on PII, 64MB, 6GB disk. I did recompile the kernel.

Thank you for your time.

-Alex
