must have done something wrong
Authored by: Numbski on Oct 12, '02 10:14:31AM

When you reboot into single user mode, there should be instructions on-screen to type fsck -y, and then mount rw /.

If not, I wonder what you did?

Give that a whirl.

If you didn't do any of the single user mode stuff, no wonder it's not working. :)

i tried again. now i have apps and users each in its own partition that still mounts on the desktop, but that doesn't bother me.

when booting in single user mode the last thing was something like sh2a# (i don't remember exactly) then i typed fsck and after that all the mv users users-old etc.

i prefer to leave the virtual memory alone. i'll wait for swapcop to work in jaguar.

thanks.
