You might want to check your init_path in loader.conf, in /boot/defaults/loader.conf it is set to
/sbin/init:/sbin/oinit:/sbin/init.bak:/stand/sysinstall
it would be sensible to replace /stand/sysinstall by /rescue/init
What happens if i leave /stand/sysinstall and put nothing in return ? How will singel user look like ?
The same. /stand/sysinstall starts the installer, it's the last thing the loader will try if everything else fail, then it must be because you have no system and would like to install one - right? But then, you might as well use an install disc.
Asuming you have a working system there is really no use for /stand. All the files in /stand are hardlinks to the /stand/boot_crunch file.
Some people like sysinstall as a postconfiguration tool, and documen- tation refers to this. But you can run it from /usr/sbin/sysinstall
On the other hand it surprises me that /rescue/init is not in the init_path, for system recovery it is far more usefull than sysinstall, it will give you a single user like system with a shell.
So, if you can't stand /stand - go ahead delete it - but don't sue me if you some day need it :-)
