I notice that one of the options in the kernel is to run without
a console.  For reasons that are boring to say the least, I reboot
my tower a lot (about 12 times per day).  Many of those reboots
I do from home (at 3:30am who wants to drive to the office..).
My question is, if I select the consoless option, will I still
be able to do my "setconsole a;single;fsck;reboot -c;reboot -d sda1"
trick without difficulty?  I guess what I am asking in simplest
terms is, can I still be a dial-in console in single user mode
with this option selected?  Has anyone tried it?  Thanks in
advance for your answers!
