my question was how to assure that it will boot to level 3, although its default is level 5.
Put the runlevel number you wish to start in on the Grub kernel line, in this case, a 3. All my menu.lst stanzas include a number, which reminds me which runlevel I'll be starting in, and to specify another first if that isn't what I want on the upcoming boot.
AhA!! A _GRUB_ command line! Nobody has mentioned that until now The implication has been that there is somewhere in the normal boot screens a place to enter the number of the desired run level, and I have been puzzling over that for the better part of the day. Now all is clear.
Stan, You normally have a line for "boot options" in the boot screen. These are the parameters you want to pass to the kernel. In particular, you can type the desired run level there. It has the same effect as adding these options at the end of "kernel" line in grub menu stanza -- Mark Goldstein -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
