Hello all, I have been using Ubuntu since Hoary, so I am used to the general way that Ubuntu works. I was quite confused, however, when I installed Edgy (Knot 3) and reached the Grub menu.
For those that haven't yet upgraded, the entries in the Grub menu are: Ubuntu-blah-Generic Ubuntu-blah-Generic-Single-User After some thought on the matter, I decided that the top one was likely for me because it had been in every previous Ubuntu and there is usually a rescue mode in position two. The reason that I was confused is that I use Ubuntu as a desktop OS and am the only user for my machine. My first interpretation of "Single User" was that it was optimised for installations like mine; one user using Ubuntu as a desktop. I have since found out that it is the "Rescue" or "Safe" mode. I understand that there are reasons that "Single User" is used, but I personally would like to change the name to "Rescue Mode" to avoid other, less technical, people making the same misinterpretation that I fell prey to. This will especially affect desktop users (which is why I posted to this list) because they will be the ones that think the second option best describes their situation. What are the thoughts of list-members? Aaron
