It DID come up in single user mode, though, when I screwed up my /etc/fstab file, but I don't seem to be able to selectively do so. Seems that I would HAVE to boot up single user if root's password goes astray (a la, an entry in the FAQ file) Did I leave something out of the kernel when I rebuilt it?
