Great.

It might not be single-user mode, I think.  You see "# "
prompt on the screen, don't you?  It's normal root prompt.
Once you get login: prompt, it's under multi-user mode.  Try
who or "ps ax" command to see another process is living.

To bring down the system from multi-user to single-user
mode, use "shutdown now".  "exit" or ^D vice versa.

If you didn't see any login: prompt, the Booter's
single-user check box may be checked.

Hope it clears some.
