- I change inittab so the machine comes up in single user mode and
- then 'shutdown -r -y 0' to single user mode before running convertfs.
-
- Haven't crashed a file system yet and I've done about 10 of these.
-
- Of course, on a 700, you can just isl into single user mode to begin
- with.
-
- Wish I could do that on a 425...
