You can either add the following lines to lilo.conf
password=secret
restricted
This will allow the machine to boot normally without a password, but
entering "linux single" at the lilo prompt will require a password.
Or you can change /etc/inittab so that when entering single user
mode a password is required by using /sbin/sulogin i.e. add this line:
~~:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin
