[Thus spake Dan LaBell ("DL: ") 2:57pm...]

DL: You could maybe make a link to /bin/sh as /sbin/init.bak, and get a
DL: shell.

You're not going to get much if init's not running.

DL: Incidentily, is there no sulogin available? In pkgsrc or otherwise?

Oh, gack.  Please throw that one back.  sulogin is an egregious hack that
should have been wiped off its mother's leg.

DL: Of course, the lack of it, may make going to pam easier, as if was used
DL: sulogin was and it pam'ed, then pam problems would lock one out of
DL: single user as well... I think
DL: I hit that with linux maybe 6 years after a pam upgrade...

That's why init does its own thing in the first place.
