Hey Guys,

I have a server that keeps going into maintance mode since their is a
filesystem it is no longer being used(someone forgot to unmount it /

No idea why that would put it into Maintenance mode whatever that is.
Anyway, /bin/vim /etc/fstab, and put ia # in front of the line.

delete it from /etc/fstab)
How do I get to /etc/fstab from the maintenance mode? It seems the
path are not identified so when I do PATH= ..etc it says it cannot be
found.

No idea what you mean.


Any help greatly appricated.
Joe
