Well, I have some progress. The server now boots, thank God. Here’s what I did:
I booted using the Rescue disk, and mounted the file systems. I changed the last field in the /etc/fstab file to 0. Even more Googling turned up a thread that said that last field of each line tells the system whether or not to force a file system check on it. Then I went into /etc/selinux/config and disabled SELinux. I then ran: # fixfiles -f relabel # touch /.autorelabel (probably not necessary) # reboot The system came up! All the way to a GUI. I then changed the fields in /etc/fstab back to their original settings (1 for “/" and 2 for “/home"). I rebooted again. It came back up to a GUI again without any file system check problems. Unfortunately, the thin clients are not working. They give an nfs error. I need to look into that further, as that is this server’s primary function. But I think that will probably be more appropriately asked on the LTSP group, if need be. I am getting a "Transport endpoint is not connected” error when I halt the system, but I’ll look into that later. I know I should probably set SELinux back to permissive mode, like it was, but that can wait, too. I need to get the thin clients back up first. I thank you all *very* much for your help. I really appreciate it. Thank you again. Peter, hieromonk
