Alternative rescue login #357

Closed troglobit closed 9 months ago

troglobit commented 1 year ago

Currently the following rescue.conf is used in case of problems, triggering sulogin as root. An alternative could be to call /bin/login so another user can log in to rescue the system. E.g., on systems where the root user is only used for starting services and is banned from logging in.

runlevel 1
tty [12345] rescue

The alternative could be as simple as this:

runlevel 1
tty [12345] rescue login
