I would like implementation of boolean sysctl var, that would show, is system
in a single user mode.
I would like it from 8.3 onwards.

AFAIK the kernel doesn't have a "single user" mode.
It's just that when you boot into single user mo

That's why there is no sysctl for it.
I've already accepted that as a fact, so let's not pull that cat, with
rope, around, ...anymore.

Note: You do not have to be in SUM to install the world and/or the
kernel. You can install them just fi

I would like, to thank you all, for your ideas.
There are 2 ways of going into SUM (Single user mode)
1) Rebooting into it
2) Drop from MUM
My solution MUST cover both cases, of entering into SUM.
Once I enter SUM, I set it up, via 1 script, which enables deamons and other
stuff, that I need, f
