Did you found any way how to force systemd to boot to single-user? So far
my installation of F15 with systemd has only one runlevel, I can not
switch it - nor with grub option, neither with inittab or init command.
The good old "single" keyword on the kernel line is what I used and
worked fine (it might be just an alias for something else in systemd, I
dunno).
