I did not mount. After being asked to enter password to do maintenance,
I entered password and proceeded to edit /etc/devfsd.conf



as I tell in last post, in maintenance mode, / is mounted ro, mount it rw:


mount -o remount,rw /


Yes I did. /etc/devfsd.conf has been edited and saved.

But

[root@(none) /]# reboot
init: timeout opening/writing control channel /dev/initctl

Unless force reboot

I tried cd /boot but could not found /grub/grub.conf there, only an
empty folder



/boot is not mounted, so it's empty. nothing wrong.




Now I am not allowed to reboot nor shutdown with following warning popup
[root@(none) /]# reboot
init: timeout opening/writing control channel /dev/initctl
[rootr@(none) /]# shutdown -h now
init: timeout opening/writing control channel /dev/initctl



also normal. with only / mounted and ro, you can safely reboot with the reset switch.
