Thats not splitting hairs at all. init 5 physically powers the box off. init 0 drops you back to the OBP from where you can then boot to any desired state. 2 totally different outcomes.
However, this isn't my concern.
I'm interested in Singleuser not OBP.
Why do I get runlevel 3 not S or 1 when I try and
boot -s
or
shutdown -i s -g 0 -y
as I've just done..... this has actually fully booted the system back in multiuser mode.
Is there a way of disabling booting to singleuser? inittab?
This is weird.
just tried dropping to the OBP with init 0
then gone for
ok> boot -m milestone=single-user
I've now got a constantly scrolling console that says something like
Requesting System Maintenance mode
Console Login Services () cannot run
svc.startd: could not exec() sulogin: No such file or directory

Is that helpful? Jim said init 0 was power the box off (which it isn't) I was merely correcting him saying init 5 is power the box off. It's got nothing to do with my issue.
