Your confusion about "init s" getting you to singleuser mode is due
to the fact that "/etc/profile" intercepts the shell before it gets to
you...it finishes the shutdown and prints the "hit RETURN to reboot".
It does a "trap '' 1 2 3" to stop you from getting out without
rebooting. I've modified mine so that it does a "trap 1 2 3" just before
it does the "read inputline". That will allow you to hit the DEL key
to interrupt and get a shell prompt.
