is single user mode the mode that you boot into by holding the shift key as the system powers up? It was recommended to me that I do that in order to correct certain system problems. Anyway, I got to a basically gray screen with no disk volumes mounted on the desktop, and I didn't

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
