At what prompt do you expect to be able to issue these commands? Are they from the blade management or something? I regret that I do not recognise them.
How would you expect to boot to single user from CD for any other reason?
You should boot from CD media too, else it is your OS you are starting and it will still be wanting to write to /var.
