Best Answer

In traditional System V init systems, that'd be runlevel 1 or "single user mode." This should only be used in emergencies where normal boot is not working at all.

As Linux is generally going over to systemd, the idea of a "runlevel" is going away, and instead systemd will try to hit specific "targets" during boot. You can change the run target to something like single user mode, but only if necessary.

What Linux command will let you most safely switch to run level 2 without rebooting the computer?

Assuming the Linux distribution in question uses a classic SysV Init, you run, as root: # init 2 If you have systemd then there is no runlevel 2. I don't know about upstart. OpenRC is built around SysV Init, but likely systems using it generally ignore runlevels in favor of the initscript configs. Further, most Linux distributions I can think of don't use runlevel 2 at all. Check the documentation for your distribution to see what it is, if anything.

How do you shutdown a system on the same network in Linux?

The exact meaning of this question is unclear. Most Linux systems may be shutdown in a variety of ways from the local console or a remote shell login via SSH or telnet for example. If logged in as root at a command line interface (CLI), the following commands will likely change the runlevel of most Linux systems. For a system halt, type "init 0", for a system reboot, type "init 6", for a system halt, you may also type "halt", for a system reboot, you may also type "reboot", to exit multi-user mode and enter single user mode, type "init 1" and to return to multi-user mode, try typing "init 3" and so on... Invoking the "init" command allows you to change the runlevel 'on the fly' without first executing a full shutdown of the system. If the runlevel is changed from a remote connection however, be advised that your connection will be lost if the network interfaces are shut down as a result of the runlevel change. [JMH]

What does no root mean?

"No root" typically refers to a device that has not been modified to gain root access, which would allow users to have administrative control over the device's operating system and make deeper changes or customization. Devices without root access may have limitations on the level of control and modifications that can be made to the system.


The syntax of command statement in UNIX 10. If the permission for a file is 000then the file can be accessed by whom?

Your question doesn't make a lot of sense, but if the permission is 000 none of the access bits are set and nobody can access the file. However, the root user is "special" in many ways, and depending on the implementation it's possible that root can access it (root can certainly change the permissions to allow him- or herself to access it).
