Edit /etc/ttys. Change the 'console' line from 'secure' to 'insecure'. Single user now requires a password.

    That doesn't work for me, for some reason. Can you specify exactly what the line should read?

    No matter what I do, it still does not require a password anywhere in the process of booting into single user mode.
