If I had to take a guess, the reason normal user logins are disabled
during "insecure" on single mode is because of the way authentication may
be getting handled, among other things.
First off, it's single-user mode, meant for only the root user; no one
else has a need for the system at that point
Hello hackers...
I'm wondering why there is "insecure" options in /etc/ttys for virtual
consoles.
As we all know, "insecure" for ttyvX means that we can't directly log in
as root, but "insecure" for console field in /etc/ttys means only that
we will be asked for root's password in single mode.
Hm
