Hello,
could somebody help me to understand the best way to enter into a
single user mode on a remote server.
I need it for the moment, during rebuilding world, when I have to
reboot into single user mode before 'mergemaster -p'.
I had this same issue last week... fortunately, my hosting provider
had a remote KVM solution and hooked it up to my server while I got
the job done. btw, that provider was m5hosting.com. I originally
found them from the freebsd.org community page and have been very
happy with their knowledge and support.
good luck, ke han
The only solution I found so far is to do 'shutdown -r now' and
when the server boots to login with ssh and do 'shutdown now' -
which should drop it to single user mode.
I can ask the support at the hosting location to reboot in single
user mode, but I do not know if I will have ssh then?
Alternatively I can ask them to do the last few steps.
Thank you for your advises,
Iv.
