I give it a "init=/bin/sh" ?

Please post commands not chat. Say exactly what you do.

If you mean you gave that as a command to redboot you need to read 
the doc again.

you probably need to append this to however you are booting it now. 
Since you dont post that either we can't guess.

at redboot prompt fconfig -l will tell you what you have . You can do 
a one off boot without redefining fconfig .

Just read the doc.
