Description Alan Pevec 2011-01-05 10:37:46 EST

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #667414 +++

"single" kernel boot argument should be added to kill list and shouldn't be stored in /etc/default/ovirt. Storing this argument can make the host boot into single user mode on each boot.

Patch

Test:

boot with single in kernel command line arguments
Check /etc/default/ovirt for single option
reboot afterwards, and ensure that single is not set

Comment 4 Guohua Ouyang 2011-04-22 03:24:12 EDT

Verified on rhev-h 5.7-1:
1. After install, cat /etc/default/ovirt, no single option
2. Boot with single, cat /etc/default/ovirt, no single option
3. Reboot, not enter single mode.

Change bug status to verified.
