Previously, the single user mode argument was stored in "/etc/default/ovirt", which caused the host boot in single user mode on every boot. This is fixed and the "single" kernel boot argument is added to the kill list to prevent single user mode for each boot.

Description Alan Pevec 2011-01-05 15:37:46 UTC
+++ 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 07:24:12 UTC
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.
