Sorry the syntax is wrong try mount -n / -o remount,rw if still no worky It may be that it is not mounted at all I guess. Since I have never been where you are I don't know for sure. How did you get to a command prompt? What messages are there? I am assuming that the / filesystem is mounted since you could at least get to a single user command prompt. I believe the kernel gets the root file system information from the boot loader so it should be mounted even without an fstab but the mount command wants to look in fstab to translate the mountpoints (/) to a device (/dev/hda2) what does mount return?
