Other than a lilo password, you can also make init use sulogin in
single user mode ( which was the original question ). To do this
add the following line to your /etc/inittab

~~:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin

Although the lilo password has the added functionality of 
preventing users from passing arguments at the LILO: prompt.

Remember to do

# chmod 0600 /etc/lilo.conf

if you put a lilo password in there :-)
