commit 779812d66989a9c3aaed09e4573400fc137f92b0 Author: Jilles Tjoelker <[email protected]> AuthorDate: 2025-09-14 21:53:34 +0000 Commit: Jilles Tjoelker <[email protected]> CommitDate: 2025-09-16 20:36:41 +0000 init: Use root's home directory in single-user mode When starting single-user mode, use the home directory from user root as current directory and for the HOME environment variable. If the directory does not exist, set HOME=/. Also adjust /root/.profile to stop setting HOME, since it should always have been set now. This is intended to keep shell startup files working in single-user mode after /.profile has been removed.
