RE: cannot boot after updating to 5.3 stable
You can boot off a live file system (the fixit CD/floppy) and examine the mountpoints which are already available on the hard disk. I have the feeling that the reason why it is not booting is, you are not setting the proper mount point. Regards, S.

RE: cannot boot after updating to 5.3 stable
Your problem is, somehow the mountpoint entries in /etc/fstab have messed up. As a result the system cant find the root file system. At the Mount Prompt type ? to get a list of all the valid mountpoints. Then manually mount all the mount points. Once you point the system the root it will straight go into the single user mode. You can then go into /dev and see what partitions are there. Mount the partitions manually and then open up /etc/fstab in your favorite text editor and make the necessary changes. The nnext boot onwards the box won't complain. BTW, you wont be able to open any text editor until and unless /usr is mounted. Because all the binaries (including the text editor, vi in my case) resides in /usr. Regards, S.
