Hi people, I’ve done something stupid to my /etc/fstab. I
made some changes because I wasn’t having much luck getting supermount to
work. Anyway after a reboot, I found my system now hangs at
the stage where it says “Mounting local filesystems”, and I cant find a way to bypass this. I’ve left the machine for quite some time
hoping it might pull through but no luck… I’ve tried using programs for Windows to read
the ext2 partition so that I can copy /etc/fstab to windows, edit the file, and
then copy it back to the ext2 partition, but I’m not having any luck
copying it back. I’ve tried booting a Slackware Linux
installation cd-rom, gone to a terminal and tried mounting /dev/hda1 to /mnt/hda1
but I get errors telling me there’s either too many filesystems mounted,
theres a bad superblock, it’s the wrong fs type, etc… So can anyone think of any other ways I could fix the
problem? I’m using Mandrake 9.1 by the way. Thanks very much, Chris Barnes. |
