[Nix-dev] Single user mode

[stewart mackenzie]

So I've got a corrupted harddisk sector that needs a fsck.ext4 run.

It disturbs my bootup flow nagging me of this fact.

I'm unable to umount /nix/store so I need to boot into single user mode.
Pressing 'e' during bootup then typing 'single' into the line that starts
with 'linux' doesn't solve it. Typing 'init 1' also doesn't solve it as I'm
immediately presented with X11 login prompt.

How does one enter rescue mode on nix?
