As a Debian newbee, I was very surprised this week-end: on the first reboot
after adding a second raid array to my newly installed Debian system, the
reboot failed, could not recognize the UUID of the new array.
So I give the root password, and # vi /etc/fstab. Surprise ! I get vi: command
not found
Had to boot a live CD (adding dmraid=true in the grub line), and mount the
partition so I could edit /etc/fstab (and remove all the UUID crap which, as
far as I am concerned, does nothing good but bring problems)...
How is it that such a fundamental tool as vi is missing ?
How can I make it available in the rescue console ?
Cheers,
Ron.
