===========
Thanks for mentioning this Robert, as I could see it being somewhat
confusing to new users of Grub2 without some research. I've written a
piece in the Zenwalk WIKI to explain the use and reason it's added in a
basic grub.cfg. It may indeed be a good idea though to change it to
something more descriptive of what function it performs and that is to
only boot to runlevel 1 of the system. I think that's right, isn't it?
Regards,
Pat
