There never has been anything in my single user runlevel. It worked
fine a few weeks ago but after the openrc upgrade, no more worky.
The funny thing is, I can go to a console and type in rc single, that
works fine. It goes to single user mode with no errors. Well, I did
notice top showed the ttys still running. I'm going to test that
later. That may be another thread for another day. Sort of beating on
one thing at a time. ;-)
I just thought maybe it changed from softlevel to something else but if
it did, I can't find it documented anywhere and even Google appears to
be lost on this.
Open to ideas still.
