Default Interactive startup

Hi, whilst I don't use fedora core anymore, and am using ubuntu now, I do recall and interactive startup mode, whereby you can select which services start up during the boot. To do this you keep pressing 'I' when you get to the kernel loading section (like initrd - starting red hat nash etc). Sometimes the delay on interactive startup is like half a second, so make sure you keep tapping 'I'. I missed the first few times not being quick enough so once it work i extended the delay to 5 seconds. In any case this should allow you to choose no to starting the service you've added to the boot sequence, get you in, and then i'd suggest 'undoing' what you've done. If you're not sure how to do that, try webmin to analyse startup services and disable the entry you've added.
