AFAIK, the interactive boot mode was part of the SysV init. I don't know if anything similar is available with systemd init. Here's an old thread from this list about it: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/MWRIPXZ67YBKEPXIY2M4T476KTQJXKH4/?sort=date Maybe that will provide a starting point for where to look in the systemd options. -- Todd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I got stopped by a cop the other day.
