make your PC reboot (do it with Ctrl-Alt-Del) when grub's menu displays, move the hilighted line on your current config (this is necessary only if you have more then one bootable kernel) press e (for edit) move the hilighted line on the kernel parameters (usually containing things like root=LABEL=/) press e again then add the number 1 at the end of the line (leave a blank before) to tell the system to boot in single mode press enter to end editing press b to boot the system will start with only a very few services activated : your wrapper script should not start and the boot will end with a root shell modify your script so that it starts in the background type exit (to continue booting) or reboot (to start a new boot sequence)
if this doesn't work, you might try to connect from another computer with telnet or ssh, even if the keyboard/mouse/display of your computer remain locked due to the boot sequence not complete, it's likely that network services have already been started and let you login from a remote system hth A 11:14 21/08/2003 +0100, vous avez écrit : >Hi, > >I tried to install a service using a wrapper script to run a java >application in the background.
