That is all you would get from single user mode. single user mode only has the very basic of programs running. It will not even set up your network.
So, you could run single user mode, configure the network with ifconfig commands. Start sshd and then start terminal on a second machine and ssh into the first machine. I believe in your case however, you should just need to run startup diagnostics.
